Were these Thorograph horses?

Thanks,

Bill,

In terms of Thoro-Graph, can say $30 Paganol in the opener was a horse that looked particularly live with a return to the race 2 back.

Given that turf in general is contentious, Tepin and Divisidero started out as viable options the way I saw the races. Divisidero was sure to get a pace to close into and Tepin had every chance to be involved while saving ground. Buff Bradley and Mark Casse had been on ATR in recent months talking about both and I like to reach for horses like these that are progressive. Adding in the strong morning works and their attractive prices and both were ideal 'Best Value' keys. Getting either home would have been great, but both was fortuitous.
