I remember hitting a nice Amy Tarrant turf firster that outfinished a chalky Mott horse. made the lead and seemed to carry her speed real well. now was it the rail or did the turf wake her up? Who knows but I think the rail thing might have some validity.

I bet Hopes and Dreams in that race. She won back next out at Calder and did OK in a subsequent Gulfstream race. I believe the Amy Tarrant horse came back to run poorly at Gulfstream. She ran like it was more than any rail placement was helping her that day at Belmont.

I will have to ask some people smarter than me about this. Won't be hard to find them.
