Oh. I wasn't aware of that. That makes the track surface as a culprit much more likely.

Sure like this one.
She's 8 for 13 lifetime and on the improve.
Highway Star is very fond of the sandy Belmont oval........that translates well to the also sandy DMR main.
Of course..........10-1 or so helps.

She's running in the Flower Bowl, the next logical spot after the Beverly D. Her fifth start in less than six months. She hardly sits idly in the barn.

You're really ramping up the cynicism these days, Greg. At least selectively that is.

I am not sure you are aware but the horses are skipping racing all over this country, open your eyes.

from baffert, to assumussen, to brown.......from sea to shining sea.

My eyes are wide open, Greg, which you well know. However, taking shots at everything, as you have been doing for the better part of this year, makes you the boy who cried wolf, and thus invalidates your thoughts.

Grand Jete is hardly the poster child for horses that are under-raced. In fact, the two I can think of that fit that bill the most this year, aren't even trained by household names. Those would be Forever Unbridled and Stellar Wind.

Who is Steve Asmussen leaving in the barn....Gun Runner? You must be kidding me.

Blanket accusations tend to get you in trouble.

Her trip at Arlington is a horror show for anyone who bet her. Looked like a winner every step, never given a chance to run.

I bet her pretty good, more than pretty good. I thought she was a cinch.

Feels like the wise guy horse of the year especially after she jogs in her prep at Belmont.
