Ah I knew I wasn't crazy. Chip removal. Yeah I mean if pretty much any horse had given his litany of excuses before this race and gone on to finish just out of 3rd we'd have all said 'well what did you think he was gonna do? Poor guy' so it makes sense that Wilko wasn't in front today. He tried. Do you think he'll get a decent amount of respect as a classy underdog when it comes to running in the Big Cap? Who else is pointing to it?
