Some horses are just cut out to be better on dirt than synthetic.

The classic example would be Hystericalady. She always either pissed away easy leads on synthetic .. or made threatening turn moves and totally faded in the stretch.

On dirt ... she was one of the 12 or so most talented female horses I've ever seen.

It really is a shame that we don't see classic SoCal dirt horses anymore because of the synths.

The BC Distaff running line was especially painful for me. That was the biggest bet I've ever made and stood to cash VERY large had she won that bob.

She's definitely the example I come up with when I look at dirt vs. synthetic being interchangeable.

BBB, as always tremendous pompousity, pretentious posting, and a remarkable ability to demean yourself in a veiled attempt to criticize others. Another pathetic effort.

By the way, shouldn't it be Cannonmen?

Same here Phil.
I cringed when I saw the PP running line.
I wish she would have had Gomez on her...I like to think he would have carried her across the wire in front....I had a large Win bet on her. (for me)
I actually made a little $$ on the race thanks to a $10 exacta saver under Ginger Punch...But I crush them if HL wins.
