He might. His dam-side pedigree isn't bad for a turf try, and his running style could be effective there.
I am just guessing, but I have a feeling his connections probably aren't real sure what they want to do with him at this point.

There was an article somewhere that Pletcher said he was pointing to the Virginia Derby.

He's probably a miler, and there are a lot of valuable races on turf from 8f to 9f these days. And if he has ouchy feet, as some have suspected before now, grass may allow to have a longer and more remunerative career.

He has ouchy feet too? Geesh. I thought that was just Scat Daddy.

Speaking of Scat Daddy, has anyone heard anything about him and when he might be coming back? I know that he blew a quarter crack in the derby, but hadn't read anything since.
