It helped that he crawled on the front end, but yes, he was gutsy.

Slow pace or not, the 4 is really supposed to go by.

True to all, the 10th is a very interesting race. Prado seemingly chooses the #2 but Western Slang has a chance it would seem, she's just too good a price to not put a few dollars her way.

It helped even more that the only other speed was conveniently scratched today. Wonder if that was just a coincidence? :rolleyes:
How much was the bonus for winning? 1 mill? Thats a lot of cash!

$250,000. It's funny, I jokingly said it was a conspiracy when they posted the early fractions. Unless That'srightofficer was in on it though, I'm pretty sure the result was legit.

Not saying the result wasnt legit. Tin Cup was very game and Thatsrightofficer looked like a horse who really wanted to win, but as he does often, couldnt go by when it mattered. It does make you wonder that the only other horse in the race with speed is entered off a freshening and scratched. I rememeber the day Writingonthewall won by 6 and watching Talking Horses that night. Jason Blewitt was commenting on how this horse would be perhaps pointed towards the Albany. That was way back in June.
Makes perfect sense to me.

fat man what was he doing in the parking lot on the far turn? , garcia got the trip on the rail and beat him less than a head

if he stays inside and comes up the rail he wins for fun
