WOW. Very fast final time, basically in hand for first half mile after
breaking very sharply.

Masochistic is by the unraced Seeking the Gold stallion Sought After out of
the mare Smolensk. Smolensk was a Group 2 winner at 2 and is out of the Grade
1 winning/producing Blush With Pride. (BWP also produced Better than Honour,
the dam of Belmont winners Jazil and Rags to Riches).

No mention in DRF coverage as to whether Masochistic would have to be
supplemented to the BC, and no idea whether Masochistic would be pointed to
the Sprint (6 furlongs) or the Dirt "Mile", to be run this year at about 7
furlongs.

Brief research shows that Sought After is not a BC nominated stallion.

General query: How does "Win and your In" work if stallion/foal was not BC
nominated? (Triple Bend was not a "Win/In" race.)

Great day of racing at the Great Race Place, with the Spa and Del Mar on the
horizon.

No matter what one thinks about TVG personalities/coverage, I hope we can all
keep positive thoughts for Simon Bray.
