Race still gets me fired up.
Million week is upon us as I was onsite this morning and got to see Banned, Wilcox Inn, Upperline and Never Retreat work.
Never Retreat's work was delayed by an insane rainstorm and an audible was called at the last minute to go from working on turf to working on Poly. She worked great.
I did not like Banned's work at all, rider was all over him in the stretch and while it was in a complete downpour, it didn't seem solid.
Wilcox Inn and Upperline worked in company and I was expecting alot more from Wilcox Inn, couldn't get by the filly at all while being shoved on. I personally don't think much of Upperline so that is why I was expecting better. Maybe Wilcox Inn is over the top.
