For Lloyd to have just een second behind the winner yesterday, he would have had to have improved about 4.5 lengths from his career best (74) to an 83 Beyer.

True, that horse ran huge and the race actually came up much tougher than it looked on paper. It is not often you see a 29 point Beyer increase even from start 1 to 2. Hopefully the Monmouth money will create some softer spots for the class and we can get Lloyd in the winners circle. It will be interesting to see how these fields come up in the next few weeks. Hope Lloyd is doing well.
