So a California based horse is shipping east to race for $1 million and people are complaining? I don't get it. Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the race four weeks after the Travers so any of the runners out of that race can easily come back in Pennsylvania. Plus, the owner and trainer of Tonalist and Bayern are also guaranteed the same bonus as Chrome's people are. I understand it's not the Haskell or the Travers and doesn't have the same prestige but it has the same money and if none of those others big guns go to Parx, Chrome will be 1/2 in a $1 million race. Forgive my ignorance but I can't for the life of me understand how it would make more sense to go to a tougher race for the same money when you are the current leader of the division. If they want him, he's coming to their back yard so they can go get him. The leaders aren't usually the ones doing the chasing.
