THIS is why the game will always be interesting
 

Was looking at a thread on yesterday's 9th at KEE over on another forum. They're typically missing the point.

A number of interesting facts:

1) Sweepstakes was blocked inside in the lane and closed well when she got out

2) Alwajeeha covered 33 more feet than Sweepstakes; 34 more than I Lost My Choo, and 35 more than Vancy Pants. In fact, only Namaste's Wish (+1) and Fashiion Rocks (+4) covered more ground than she.

3) While Sweepstakes ran less than Alwajeeha, she was also on the wrong lead for a good deal of the backstretch, then continued lefty on the turn, and was unable to change in the lane until she got out of traffic. So, she was LEFTY for a long bit of the race. No wonder she took off when she finally changed. Footwork is important on the turf.

We're the "Heavy Hitters" of handicapping here.....like these guys!

At least the guy who uses this advertizing phrase in Lexington fits the 'heavy hitter' description. Big, broad, packing a few extra pounds <she wrote diplomatically>, swinging a baseball bat.
