While #5 has never run a race (by the numbers) that gives one confidence and the trainer although popular as he is seems to be in a protracted slump Heiodoro\'s last race was unusual.
It was a 6+1/2F sprint. The broke well contended and then dropped to the rear and then finished strongly passing horse.
Now a class drop and and an increase in distance. Looks best chance is to fill out exacta or trifecta but 7/1 is 7/1.
After watching the race can only think what a tough project this one is. With horses like this no wonder Nick is fighting uphill battle.
You sure its not the horses fighting the uphill battle?
Not sure of much anymore, but the horse sure did look to be fighting the rider. Doesn\'t have the hang of this racing thing and puts the unusual last race into context.
