"We drew into the MSW on Saturday at Monmouth. Mike was able to look at the entries. While this is a larger field, Mike feels that The Defense Rests is ready to fire, and he wants to take advantage of the $75K purse. He also thinks The Defense Rests will really like the surface, so he wants to take a shot. We'll have the analysis tomorrow, but we wanted to let everyone know we would scratch at Belmont and run at Monmouth.
