No failure allowed this time. No, it's time to perform. You must perform this time. NOW!! is the time you find out what the trainer thinks is the best distance for his horse. He has to run well. So, we can go over his pedigree etc. all we want, but Sadler n' Benevidez just gave you the answer last Monday. It was a 1-turn 7f stakes race. They didn't opt for a 2 turn allowance race. Nope, they decided they had the best chance to get back on the scoreboard going 7f against a horse (Tiny Woods) that just beat them in a sprint. That is telling me, when they felt the most pressure, they preferred their chances 1 turning. These guys know how far their horses want to run. Yea, they hope they're wrong, but they usually aren't. He's won this race 3 out of the last 4 years (S Candy, Nobles Promise, Evita Argentina.) Georgie Boy, Too Much Bling, Imperialism, F Rock Star etc. have won this race. This race is primarily for 3 year old horses that eventually prove to be best going 7f-8f. It's been 13 years since a 10f horse won it. Trainers act in certain ways, and he is so acting like he's got a 7f-8f horse. Maybe he'll get 9f on a good day (alone up front.) He's not gunna get 10f. Just saying that the San Pedro n' San Vicente are probably not the place to go looking for a 10f horse. If you're looking there, then you're fishing awfully hard.
Trying to read one of your run-on posts is like trying to watch a race run over poly at Del Mar. The content of the post (or quality of the field) doesn't matter as the eyes start to bleed from the strain of reading your post (or watching the race).

Have you ever heard

of

a freaking paragraph?

You give the West Covina Unified School District a bad name, and I really didn't think that was possible, as I thought they had cornered that market all for themselves.
