There was no good reason to have the horse. Had I played the race, the only way I catch him is with the all button. Admittedly, I have watched very few races from Aqueduct thus far. I will look through the PP's most days and have made a couple spot plays here and there, but that is about it. Montalvo may be riding like absolute sh*t so far this meet, I have no idea, but the mounts he has been getting have been far from "live". I was merely pointing out that I have seen him ride enough in the past to know that he is very capable on the grass. To be fair though, most of those rides have been at TBD where the jock colony isn't exactly 5 star.
