Reckless Jerry and On Fire Baby were not so fortunate and both wound up 4-5 wide the entire way. On Fire Baby will be very dangerous back against fillies and Reckless Jerry as well in the Southwest.

Hopefully D. Wayne's experiment with Optimizer as a dirt horse is over.
Laurie's Rocket saved most of the ground, but I still liked his effort because he finished okay despite not getting much of a breather on the front end.
