Default Weather on Saturday

Right now looks like a 50% chance of rain on Saturday.....let's say it rains and the track isn't fast.....Who gets the nod? Any sire or dam lines that do particurlarly well in off or muddy courses? This would apply to the undercard as well....

I wouldn't mind the rain. . . Any Given Saturday and Hard Spun should benefit and they're my top two. . .

Just glanced at it, but any list that does not include Distorted Humor as a "wet sire" is in dire need of updating.

AGS has a monster wet tomlinson.
But from that report, I can't believe the track would not hold up, unless the T-Storms come hard for an hour before the race (see Derby, 2004).
