On the fouls.....Gomez drifted for sure but the 9 came in dramatically as well. Of course, it would help if their head on wasn't at an angle but it's more important to give $1 million away on a fake race than spend $5K to get an actual head on. That is assuming they even understand the principle of a head on shot.

The horse Z Humor ran pretty well though. That was a tough pace and he was right with the pace the whole time. Turf War and Borel looked great and the local horse made a big run. A little hard to see and predict off of this race. I think it was good for the 2yo/3yo crop to see 2 of the better pedigrees do well here.

How does the purse distribution work here? (each split win and place?)
