Since apparently no one saw or thought much about a Jockey giving away a race on a 50/1 horse so I\'m changing the subject. The sheet notes should be interesting on that 2/5 winner. Bore out, stopped and inherited win because of opposing jockey flashing the victory sign.

Looking at Friday\'s BEL card race #5 a turf route statebred fillies ALWn1x. My question is: are there a dearth of races of this type @ SAR.

Why I\'m asking. Its well known Chad Brown points to the SAR meet. Yet, he has the morning line favorite in this race. CB trains a bunch of horses but if this one is back to her first race condition I\'m thinking he\'d save her for the Spa.

My imagination is probably getting away from me but this filly could have a hole in her. She has spent a lot of time on the sidelines. So the race becomes interesting to me if Swear By It is a toss. I suppose I could hedge singling her horizontally and tossing her for verticals.

anybody else stopped on this one?

I played the 1 horse.

I\'ve watched that replay, I dunno, 20 times trying to figure out WTF he was doing.  He is riding his ass off, then stands up as if its the gallop out. I\'m guessing he thought the perch on the inside was the finish line. Stairs leading up there.

That is the sickest beat I\'ve had in a VERY long time.

I\'m meeting some friends in Pleasanton tomorrow, our annual get together for some live fairgrounds racing. Will attempt to forget it and enjoy my day.

jut watched it. my guess, he didn\'t see the bolting horse and thought he had it won .

 Other than Gryder, I have no idea who these riders are or if you added up all the iq\'s in the race if it would total over 100.
