You are correct. So they missed a race, I can say the same thing about Sylmar missing a race like the Black Eyed Susan, or the Mother Goose. Wouldn't you agree that a race like the KY Oaks takes alot of out of horses. Stanco pointed for the Saratoga races, where Beholder's people pointed towards the Fall.

I get it, your fan of Princess of Sylmar, I am too, I think both are very good horses, and I'm sure you agree with that.

We can agree to disagree about who will win the Eclipse and we'll see when the voting comes out.

The Black Eyed Susan is 2 weeks after the KY Oaks. You can't really compare Princess of Sylmar skipping that with Beholder not making any starts for 4 months.

I'm not really a fan of Princess of Sylmar and I don't think she'll win the eclipse. I agree with you that Beholder is going to win.

But I think Princess of Sylmar is more deserving because she was running in the important stakes while Beholder took the path of least resistance.
