Well, I said it would be a tough race and even with three scratches, the best my choice can do is come in dead last. I haven't seen the video replay but in looking at the fractions, it would appear the pace was brutally fast, and with his best Beyer being 81, he may have been just to slow for this group.
I would suggest you put these three finishers in your virtual stable, am sure we will hear from them again.
Congrats to Great Mills and the Asmussen/Leparoux connection. He went off as the co favorite with Royal Currier and paid a nice $7.20 mutual.
