\"If they get everyone they think they will it\'s a great card, a mini-BC.\"
And with the 5 weeks in between that works pretty well with Belmont\'s mini-BC card on Belmont Day. If you can get some of the trainers/owners to buy into incorporating these dates into their schedule culminating in the BC you actually have the framework for something approaching a \"season\".
Baltimore gets bupkus, of course. What else is new?
