  • The Swale where the two favorites were 1-2, 2-1 from the get go...
  • And the 1m nightcap where Jacoby's Run took over after 3/8ths and held off three horses coming from off the pace.

steve - im at work , i can't pull up charts , i was just curious how many of the winners were 1st or 2nd at the first call of each dirt race that day - i think that is a better indication of how the track played than what Drugs posted

As for your bolded part above , isn't that part of the problem with GP. How do they only card one 2 turn race at that distance that day and call themselves a major race track (nyra did a better job on wood day imo).
