No we don't. We both, essentially, look for the horse that got the clear run. In this particular case, it wasn't about getting through a tight hole, DW, was in much tighter, on the rail, all the way around the track until that point. There was a huge opening on the inside in the lane and Leparoux just chose to go outside before entering. As it was, he found trouble outside, while staying inside would've given him a clear run.

What makes all this a nuisance is that while we both know that DW is not much horse, I have a more difficult time coming to that conclusion than you ---correctly or otherwise.

Right, I agree with the last part. Even if you are right about her last race, it's impossible to excuse the rest of her form.

He's still a she.

She's still no horse.

She did not have a tough trip.

If she ever wins it will be against maiden claimers.

Nice stone cold tri in the nightcap at GP, Hooves.
Wish I would have played it straight and heavy.

David K takes the inside route and draws, while Justin Rules has to circle and climb. Today, the rail belongs to Justin Rules. Position doesn't matter, does it?
