Understand there is no verifiable answer here, but isn\'t the simplest/most-obvious one that it is the surface and not the guys?

From the figures you know that the turf horses are more likely to run their numbers, yes? Less \"ouchy\" surface?

Also, Saratoga has a higher dose of 2YO racing than any other NY venue.

Juveniles not a strong point for RR, which could be a function of owners not
giving him many to work with.

In keeping with DJ\'s strategy of overwhelming lesser competition he entered Classic Salsa fresh off a 40K Claiming win @ Bel on Jun 18 in a 31K Alw race @ Pen today. He won easily as the 4/5 favorite. At least he is transparent not so much with RR.

This may be a lucrative new strategy of his, shipping to challenge lesser vs dropping in claiming level. Expenses increase but if he sets a winning precedent, he may end up selling some horses he no longer wants. He is innovative.
