Since coming to Delaware for career start #4 - Stones River won a MSW with a 10 horse field by 4.25 lengths and paid $10.20

Career start #5 was the race he was supposedly sabotaged in - and holy mother of God did he step it up a notch.

Looking like a cinch to win the Travers, Stones River closed from last and unleashed a monster turn of foot to win by 9.25 lengths, in hand, and pay $7.40 as the co second choice in a field of 7.

The even money favorite checked in 2nd. The 3rd place finisher, a 5/2 shot, was 3rd beaten 13.25 lengths. The final time was a supersonic 1:41.13 for a mile and 70 yards.

There were two other dirt route races on the card - the first of which was won by a horse who needed 1:51.32 to get 8.5 furlongs. That translates to the winner running a mere 72 Beyer points less than Stones River.

The other route race, was won by the hard hitting Peter Walder trained Pyramyst, a 6/5 favorite, in 1:43.16 for the mile and 70 yards. The final time was over 2 full seconds slower! Pyramyst scored her 6th consecutive win in the 46K alw race - the feature on the card. Her Beyer was only 20 points less than Stones River.

That was some fine work by the PETA folks - not only did they sabotage both Jones and Squires right before the congress hearings - but if they are that skilled at juicing horses - they had to cash a monster bet offshore on that horse and use the profits to buy stock in CDI!

I know I'm shocked.
