By the way- it's pretty clear that the rail on the turf is awful today as it was yesterday. . . I'm pretty sure that's why Golden Strategy packed it in like that yesterday- he was on the rail the whole time, set soft fractions, but had NOTHING left. . . Then all the horses that were on the outside were running at the end- look where Dave was. . . Wolfson wouldn't ship up with a horse like that unless he was live so i'm thinking it may have been the track. . . The same thing happened here to a lesser degree- the front-runner didn't really figure and she was a little keen but the way she died after those slow fractions was a little strange. . . and by the time the jock finally realized what was going on he swung her wide to find better ground but it was too late. ..

I pretty much have to agree with you on this. The rail appears to be the wrong place on the turf. And I agree that Wolfson wouldnt ship unless he had a "live" horse.
