Dead rail at the spa today

[jerry]

Any other explanation for Marconi’s trip?

[Dana666]

was he ever even on the rail? seemed like he was a few paths off for all 3 turns

[jerry]

My point exactly. Why lose all that ground when you have the path of your choice?

[Boscar Obarra]

Horse wasn\'t winning if he sprouted wings. What diff does it make if he lost a couple of lengths off the rail?

  And there\'s every chance the rail wasn\'t that hot

[jerry]

Not arguing whether or not he would have won. Just wondering why the jockey kept him so far off the rail. The only reason I can surmise is the better part of the track was out around the 3 path.

Wondering if that had anything to do with Mitole’s race in the Vanderbilt a couple of races earlier.
