Florentino has only Affirmatif to pressure him.

maybe hold me back?

lime rickey at 1 1/4 ill eat my hat..

My initial reaction after the race was to blame Lopez for engaging Affirmatif too soon and trying to get a 3 furlong run out of Straight Story. But, on second thought, I really can't blame Lopez as he was put in a tough position when Floretino didn't go for the early lead and Affirmatif was all alone out there on the lead.
