BC Classsic run-backs:
Haynesfield 2nd to 35/1 shot Jersey Town in Cigar Mile
Musket Man 8th beaten many behind Jersey Town at 7/2 in Cigar Mile
First Dude 4th at 4/5 odds behind Tackleberry in Sunshine's Million Classic. 6th at 9/2 odds in Big Cap
Fly Down 5th at 5/2 odds behind Giant Oak in the Donn.
Etched 14th at 14/1 odds on the Tapeta
2-year-old Uncle Mo ran 3 points slower - but with wind factored in - Ragozin had him clearly faster than Blame and Zenyatta. Suddenly, that's starting to seem a tad bit less amazing.
As for more recent races...
Nice pedigree:
Nice N1X Alw horse:
Nice win at Fresno:
Alydar might have been able to suck up for 8th.
And finally - to refresh - Giant Oak won the Donn and there are people who believe Tackleberry is the best horse in America.
