What does $16 million look like?
Catch the 4th at Belmont and you can see for yourself as the Todd Pletcher trained, foolishly bought, The Green Monkey takes his inaugural trip around a track whilst trying to outrun the other pretty horses.
Use your imagination for what he's named for but the connections, Michael Tabor (cheated us with Scat Daddy) et al., claim its for the golf hole above. If Johnny Velasquez heals from a spill today in time for Saturday he'll be up. Oddly enough, one of the horses in the spill, Gruffles (Dogwood Stables $250k OBS 2006, sadly euthanized) made his last work in tandem with The Monkey going a swift 7f on the 8th.
He'd better run like Secretariat or someone is out some cash.
