The thing that concerns me is the fact that the horse worked 34 flat two days ago, that is borderline insane, my guess is that it had to be raining that day.....
Rain or no rain, that work is a little crazy. And speaking of working fast, the day before D. Wayne's work, the horse just inside of him (River Bear) worked 4f in 46.4 (1/57).

You are probably right about D. Wayne. His last race WAS pretty impressive, and Bennett is having a hell of a year. I guess the board will determine exactly what I do here, but if he is in the neighborhood of 2/1, I'm still going to look elsewhere. I'm just not convinced he will turn out to be much better than Mr. Mischief or Best Buddy going 8f on the poly, and they figure to be much longer odds.
