Cutbacks on the Turf
 
Only way to lose these is if the cutback horse is run off its feet early; as it, in principle, at least, has more 'bottom', and is supposed to be able to outfinish the field.

A perfect example of this was Coa, today, on Kulka, needlessly dueling in a contested pace of what turned out to be a (high) multi-move race, a number of them questionable, that fell apart badly late.

This isn't terribly arcane, yet, connections continue to **** it up.

P.S. I didn't bet the race so save all the negative comments.

Anyone who bet Kulka at those odds deserved to be parted with their money. The 10 was probably the best that race...got out too late.

The 8 was also on the pace and ran a much better race than Kulka.
