Belmont not a netural track

TVG wants this to happen so they can cover it. If it happens at Churchill in November they won't be able to cover it. Churchill is where it should take place. I like the idea of the Clark Handicap being the race.

Even if both sides are honest about wanting to meet, I think the problem is getting the field to face them. Zenyatta's connections would obviously prefer a full field. I suppose that would be more likely in the Clark, with the boys. How many would the Beldame draw, with both RA and big Z in it? Anyway, I'm not holding my breath.

Who is the Saddler/Moss filly that 6f is the max for her? I can't think of her name. :roll:

coco belle?

belmont might be more conducive towards zenyatta's running style than churchill would in my opinion. my instincts as well as miss cleo's bulleproof soothsaying sez this isn't gonna happen for whatever reasons.
