The winter book favorite is out. The horses likely to be first and second choices are out. More examples of why you can't promote races in advance.
The three horses most likely to be the favorites:
-Haven't run in seven weeks and never been beyond 8.5f
-Never won a stakes race in his career
-Never run a single race on dirt
And the best 3yo in the country, the most exciting horse in the country at the moment......ran in a workout yesterday because her owner thinks fillies should run against fillies.
