Why? He absolutely fits the front end profile and the race has turned into a Bob Baffert benefit race. What I cant figure out for the life of me is why Dullahan goes here?

I agree with the Baffert factor and that he should be the favorite but it seemed really low with two others guaranteed to take loads of $.
Dullahan is never going to get what he wants apparently. Shame too, horse would be something on grass.

I miss Haskell day most of all.

Generally speaking, the Monmouth main track has not been the speed biased highway of years past this meet. In fact it's played just the opposite fairly often. That's not to say they won't soup it up for Haskell Day.

i believe a few weeks back they said this was the last hurrah on dirt for dullahan-unless he wins of course! that they would be going back to the green if he just didn't do well.

I can't wait for Dullahan to get back on the grass. Just so this nonsense about how good he'd be on the grass will end.
