Then he swerved Drift in, and was blocked, and so Leparoux decided to finally split horses when a hole finally opened mid stretch, AND HE PLOWED THROUGH WITH A BIG RUN. By then it was too late.

It seems like Perfect Drift always finds a way to get in trouble or come up just short. But he had as many excuses as Premuin Tap today. But I don't think necessarily Preimum Tap wins that race if 'Tap doesn't check. Because if Perfect Drift could have gotten a clean ride as well, those two easily finish 1-2 in the race.
and if a frog had wings.....
premium tap got stopped badly, almost went down. whether he'd have won i don't know. nice run by ball four...and hammerin hank hit the nat'l pick four. go figure....
