Yeah I tend to agree just not sure what the plan is.  I guess they are going to wait for a few weeks get Belmont rolling and see what transpires. Have to remember the cost on trainers having to relocate for the summer up there as well.  It's a tough call and very fluid to say the least.  I have no issue just running down at Belmont through Labor day and going to Big A after that.  Let them use the two grass courses they have at both tracks down there now.

The one thing people forget that Saratoga training track usually opens up mid April.  In a typical here I bet there would already be 400-500 horses on site. Ton of guys ship their 2 year olds from the farms in NY and Florida right to Saratoga as well right about now.  A lot of NYRA trainers live full time in Saratoga as well.  They train at Saratoga and ship down to Belmont to run all spring and summer.  It's right now just so unclear.

Will all the KY based trainers ship up to Saratoga this summer as well?  Some KY based owners might say what's the point if they cant come up for a couple weeks to enjoy it. Keeneland discussing a small summer meet as well
