On the other hand, Heez For Doc is coming out of a race that produced a next out winner (Mean Max ) and, previous to that, going 9F, he ran the best, by far, of the 3 horses with the pace, in a race that came home honestly and appeared to favor closers.

Check the charts out.

Of course, I haven't watched these races and am relying solely on the charts.

There probably are better plays than in this race.

I agree with your adjective describing Ariel, accurate and apropos.
