Nice to know.  I haven\'t spent alot of time watching field after field of the cheapest claimers, nor did I bother to download any PP\'s and handicap myself.  

As I watched every race, though, I kept thinking, \"what are they GIVING these horses?\"

That surface at Turfway is a little springy looking. That 75-1 shot Friday night was pretty tough to come up with but racing gets good down there when the Betting Public is mystified and big prices are coming in routinely . Better lucky than good sometimes though ...
