I agree with CH's assessment of horses competing in Grade 1 races off of layoffs (see TIMO in Holywd Derby). Nonetheless, I still got suckered into using PURGE.
Which brings me to my next point. Anyone think that this year's 3 year old crop leaves something to be desired? Can anyone tell me any 3yo that made any impression when running against graded elders??
Not to take anything away from the accomplishements of SMARTY JONES, however recent performances by the likes of PURGE and BIRDSTONE against older have not exactly flattered him.
Good Luck,
Joe B.
