Actually the Lost in the Fog, Gilcrist train kept to their schedule yesterday, even if stopping at a backwater station. The horse ran a respectable race. Waiting just a little and that was the difference. Still, the complexion of the race was altered with the scratch of Yes, Yes, Yes and those were not the A League sprinters and Foggy was all out to defeat them.
He will not be beating the best. Especially, if he picks up secondary scrap races the rest of the year and tries for one big win in the Breeders Cup. (Essentially the modus operandi last year)
Gilcrist, do yourself a favor. Enter the horse in some Grade I's, train him up well to them, and earn the laurels the honest way. If you can. Theres no shame in aiming for the top and falling short. This secondary schedule is not becoming for a Sprint Champion.
