Scrappy is well meant, if he'd of stayed sound they'd of made a million with him this year. They still may.

But you're right, they may not have figured it out. They suspect a deep muscle issue and hired White Mercedes per Delmar Deb. The question is, did they get it?

If hes right, hes gonna be tracking Thors Echo and perhaps Apache and will be very tough. If they didn't get it, he could miss it all.

He figures to be favored on this. It will be interesting to see what he goes off at. They've had him at Colonial, Saratoga, Bowie, they were considering Mountaineer. They've held off until now.

This wasn't a freshening. It was an issue. Its a question of faith and fitness.
