If a track lures me in because they have some nice stakes, a bait and switch like that just isn't going to work. . . I guess I'm the only one.

Not alone, I ducked the Pk-3 from the Dancer on through too. I prefer the stakes running in order, just my opinion. No doubt they have been successful and I still played up there but no vertical either.

Dance and Dance Shadwell Mile bound. . . Will probably be the wiseguy horse of the century, but I assume Gio and Get Stormy will be there to take money.
