Default Tampa race 1

The #8 goes off at 12-1 as the gate opens...or so it seems. The horse gets a clear lead and after the first quarter...so WELL into the race...clicks all the way down to freakin 7-1 and wins easily. Whatever the reasons are, it just looks bad, like really bad.

i see that at other tracks too. not shocked. everything moves slower in Fla. cause it's hot. The people, the service and the tote board.

just look at gulfstream pk, when its 0 minutes to post it still takes 10 minutes to start the race.
