Why don't I take the troubled trip into account


LOL!!! I loved that he was trapped cause I hit the pick 4 for $2596. I saw that he was bottled up in there and was really scared that if he breaks through he mows them all down. A horse to watch in his next race.

Lovely. Clement rides Castellano back and he gets skunked yet again.
Typically, on a wide course, when you have the best horse in the race, you kind of want to stay out of trouble; i.e., you want to steer your horse OUTSIDE rather than forcing it to stay inside.

Then, we have Sebastian Morales, on a quitting horse, not giving up the rail on the BEL outer. Whipping RIGHTY to shut Castellano off. WTF is that all about?

And Garcia drifts in nicely, shutting off the rail when Castellano is finally able to bull his way out.

P.S. I didn't bet the race. Just enjoying nuances of the trips and the antics of the retards.

I didn't bet him in that race - but every time I've ever bet a Castellano horse on turf he seems to get caught inside with a lot of horse. . .

**** was embarrassing. Les Antiques was easily best, and Castellano refuses to switch outside until it's too late. I understand wanting to save ground on the turn, but you should probably swing out sooner than the sixteenth pole. Dumbass.
