Rail Trip was entered into both Classic and Dirt Mile..how is the fate of the mile race for him ? RT has been fighting foot problems
in the last couple of months.

GH was pulled out in preparation of 2010 DWC next year on synthetic runway...so early ?

The trrio's en bloc departure from the Nov 7 finale will not dent the Classic charisma a little..they had been rated among
the second liners in the field anyway.

A real shame about Rail Trip's hoof problems...I'll be looking fwd to the SA winter meet though-he's prob my favorite for the Big Cap next year...

Ellis should have stopped on him after the Pacific Classic. He's pretty conservative-must have thought the feet weren't a big problem. That kind of stuff can become nagging. Better to stop and let them heal up completely.
