It's highly likely that Castellano was Hobby's guy but he was committed to Chad Brown for the Sword Dancer.

I don't read much into the jockey moves on either horse. Telling seems to be a one track wonder and Grassy is awful.

I don't understand why they keep running Grassy in these races.

Much less why anybody would keep betting on him.

He stinks.

It is gonna cost me an additional $3 to use him on my P3 ticket that I am playing, so I'll spend an additional $30 total on him. I will take Gomez at 15/1 on a horse that just worked pretty good over the lawn, and has some prior off turf form. Especially when that additional $3 makes him 150-200/1 in the P3's.

By all means, but spending $30 on a horse in a G1 because he has a good turf workout and won a slow soft turf race in a six-horse photo over a year ago just seems like wasted money to me.
