He had everything his own way and basically stopped at the wire. Although it was a solid G1 win for Blame I just didnt see it as awesome. BP put up zero fight at the wire.
Battle Plan was running well and looked like he was going to win until he switched back to his left lead at the 1/16th pole. Right when he switched to his left lead, he came to a stop. I don't know why Castellano didn't at least attempt to get him back on his right lead. I'm not saying it would have necessarily worked but it was worth a try.
