Much the best in that race.
He bumps once (or twice) with the horse to his outside on the turn NEVER losing stride. He's not trapped. He never breaks stride. He's just typically sucking along waiting for the others to run so that he picks up the pieces.
What I particularly enjoyed was his stretch run, where he's clunking along and the jock hits him lefty and he drifts out and then the jock switches the whip and he drifts in. He was Full of Run, to say the least. Was he drunk?
