Default WELSCH: Burns opts Classic with Smooth Air

I'm surprised that Brian Burns went this way...

"The owner definitely wants to get into the Classic, if that's possible," said trainer Bennie Stutts, referring to Brian Burns and his Mount Joy Stables. "In fact, he's already sent in his $50,000 pre-entry fee. With his permission, I also nominated Smooth Air to the Grade 2 Oak Tree Derby, which is a mile and one-eighth race on the turf for 3-year-olds to be run the same day, as insurance in case we don't get into the Classic."
