And not the BC Turf, which is especially weak this year?
Odd choice. I understand the male horses and added breeding value. This, however, makes no sense.

I love this move, shes won everything else and BC FnM T win wouldnt mean much. Kudos to Sir Michael Stoute and Lord Byron for being game sportsmen.

I suspect the distance of the Turf is considered to be beyond her optimum - most of her major wins since her 3yo year have been at 10f-11f. Although why they would go for the Classic rather than the FM Turf...., By the way, Arravale's win yesterday makes the 3yo turfers like Wait a While and Vacare look very good for that race. This is a talented bunch of 3yo fillies.

Hmmm... not sure about this move, but I'm guessing they're concerned about the turf distance for her. I personally think she's got a better shot at the turf (even with the added distance) than the classic. JMO...

This would be really stupid but I guess it's their third BC so they can do whatever the hell they want with her.

All I can say if this is true is WOW.....she's too nice a mae to throw to the dogs like this.....a very good candidate to run last IMO....I've seen her in person and she is very physically unimpressive and strictly has the body and action of a turf horse......I would be disgusted if they broke her down (heaven forbid) with an asinine move like this....If this is true, I'm very disappointed..
The F&M Turf is in shambles now if this is a fact....no Ouija Board, no Alexandrova....It's setting up as a Wait a While waltz in the park and I'm not usually a fan of American turf horses in these races.... Disappointing as a fan...I was really hoping for the Alexandrova, Ouija Board, Wait a While and Gorella showdown in that race in a perfect world...Oh well...what a race it could have been... This does NOTHING to boost the Classic IMO...it just gives Bernardini another longshot victim..

Am scratching my head concerning putting her in the Classic. Why would they do this in perhaps her last race? I think she would have a real good shot in the Turf and with a victory would earn the right to be called an all-time great mare.

And even if she finished middle pack, why would they do that to her when she had a better chance at the F&M turf? Makes no sense to me... ???

Im a little perplexed myself but I guess they just feel she has nothing to lose at this point. But still...

I don't know..... I read the UK sites daily and have seen nothing about this move. She had her last gallop in the UK over the weekend and even in that coverage, nothing..... Last edited by my miss storm cat : 10-23-2006 at 11:09 AM.

But Lord Byron??? What on earth can have made you think that she's owned by a 19th Century poet? She's owned by Lord Derby. His ancestor gave us The Derby, and by extension you guys the Kentucky Derby. I certainly haven't heard anything and would imagine this rumour is a load of nonsense.
