I want to see a 3F race where a horse wins by 18 lengths. LOL!
Boss, Boss, Boss-

Why do you continue to throw pearls to swine? I'll save you the trouble of having to condescend to explain this to an inferior mind.

I am surprised this guy hasnt seen it happen a million times with all of the 3F races that are carded around the country these days.

Gander, I'll put this plainly so that even YOU can understand. When horses run 3f, often times they are whipped right out of the gate. Once that momentum gets going, very quickly the creme rises to the top. After the first furlong, if the horse isnt up by at least 10 lengths, the horse is a GOAT and should be pulling cart instead of racing. Well, when he is up by ten lengths, the jockey has got to hold the horse back. Simple as that.

At 9 furlongs, you better believe the trainer is instructing them to hold back when they get up by 15 lengths. You better believe it Pal.
