Some people think we entered hoping it would come off the turf but in that case we would have entered MTO and saved a thousand dollars. We wanted to let him run on firm turf but when it came up yielding we scratched and went to Thursday's 12f race were he drew the number one gate, that should give him plenty of time to fall asleep and give everyone a furlong head start.

Thanks
He ran a great race maybe he could have got there if anyone ran with the winner.
But who can complain about a ten year old getting a second in a Grade II race.
We love him

I meant to post this earlier, but I went and visited the great Black Tie Affair, sire of everybody's favorite 10yo gelding, a couple weekends ago. The guy looks pretty good in his stable at O'Sullivan Farm in Charles Town, and clearly rules the roost along with Prized, another former Breeders Cup winner. His coast is barely grey anymore, but the horse still has perfect conformation and looks like he could go out and win on the lead at 10f tomorrow.

Not on Evening Attire per se, but I thought fans of Evening Attire would like to know how his famous father is doing these days.
