For what it's worth I bet St. John's River and thought Rosie gave her a great ride, especially considering the horse took a right turn out of the gate and spotted the field a couple lengths. Whether or not riding the potentially dead rail till midstretch cost her a victory is certainly questionable but I'd say it didn't.

You should call Bobby Flay and Emeril

A dead rail is really hard to determine. It felt like outside sweeping moves were doing well, but that's how races tend to shake-out like others said.

If you want to see a dead rail watch most days at Parx.
