After learning that Creative Causeway was targeting the ARC I realized it was a nightmare and went back to sleep

Nothing says Arc like setting a slow pace on a strong rail and an 89 Beyer.

Arc seems like setting their sights too low. What’s wrong with the Grand National?

Sure and he was rewarded with a fortunate victory.

Talking about the Arc has me thinking he got into a certain someone’s stash before the interview. Does he also think Songbird beat Beholder?

I thought it was entirely possible for CC to run an 89 on turf and I thought that would have been good for 9th place.
