my opinion on willie is this- if he knows he has a horse that can get the job done, he'll ride.
this isn't a guy that needs 8 mounts a day to get by, he can afford to be picky, imo.
i would think, that if he thinks he has a shot to knock back some nice $ on a one day trip, then it's well worth the effort for him.
and as stated before, the question would become what would it take for him to go? maybe the costs that we are seeing here, maybe a little less?
irregardless of the outcome, it's all part of this great learning experience for me as well.

FYI from what I see the second condition book at Arlington has no races remaining that fit her unless she's ready 6/20 for 1 and 1/16 for 3yr old fillies, 32.5K purse. The 2nd book runs thru 6/24 and the 3rd book , not yet out, will see added purses and possibly a good size more if any added $ is tied to the handle as we are having a bonanza year.
