With that aside, the winner got a perfect setup, got clear at just the right time, and the race held well given the number of with-the-pace types in it. NoCount was in fairly good position and just couldn't get it done. I suppose they'd be picking Tagg up off the ground if he was the trainer of Trippi's Storm or HOST (great ride GG), after the trips they got. All they needed was 10 more strides.
