The Messenger Stakes eliminations at Yonkers on Friday 6-20-25

Since the best in North America are at the Pepsi North American Cup, how does this affect the Messenger?

Thoughts and input appreciated.

I highly doubt you'll see any of tonight's horses because that means they would have to run 4 weeks in a row with the elims and finals & that doesn't happen anymore, plus alot of trainers avoid 1/2-mile tracks except for The Jug.

I thought the next stop was Pocono, no?

then the M1 Pace

Pocono's big races are in August.
