Default Anyone think Invasor actually runs in the BC Classic?

I don't see Invasor running in the Classic. Losing doesn't help his value and they would have to pay a supplemental fee of $750,000 to enter him. Expect a mysterious ailment to appear in the next couple weeks.

i do. i think the horse of the year is on the line. even 2nd wouldn't embarass him. nice check for 2nd too. skipping the jcgc also gives him a nice excuse. "he needed the prep".

U must have just read the post I put up when they announced that he was "sick" and would miss the JCGC? His only chance was for both Bernardini and Discreet to lose. I just don't see him there. I would think if they were going to send him, they would have made that one time payment of $150k a long time ago. But they never did.

He is supposedly recovered from his "sickness" and everyone seems to think it is a foregone conclusion that he will run in the Classic.

The truth is there is plenty of history in the two brothers running against each other and I expect Invasor to run.

Look, I'm as skeptical as anyone, but too many knowledgable people have told me that the fever story is true, and I think there is little reason to believe Invasor won't run. I certainly hope he does.

I saw Dreamer so I know all about the brothers running against each other.

I'd love to see Invasor in the Classic too but I'm not expecting it.

I hope he runs.. but I'm not keeping my hopes up... there's too many others that could beat him, which would make $750,000 not worth it. But I'm hoping...
