Reddam sent two horses east that should've been out here a while ago. I don't see how that's some indisputable condemnation of O'Neill.

It's certainly not an indisputable condemnation of O'Neil. But it doesn't make him look very good.

Overextended was 6-1 on the morning-line. He certainly got bet way down going off at 5-2. But we don't know how much of that money was inside money.

I certainly think Overextended improved today. I don't think a repeat of his dead-last finish in his previous race in the open nwx1 would have been good enough to win the race today.

I do admit that Notional is a much better horse on conventional dirt, so that could have been a big reason for his improvement.
