Great but under-rated races: '98 KY Cup Classic

[Indian Charlie]

I'm pretty sure Nak got a suspension for a rail ride he gave LDJ. It was a long time ago, but I think he tried to bulldoze a horse out of his way and took a lot of crap for it.

Did she really think Megan's Interco was better than LDJ? Man, that is crazy talk. I LOVED Megan's Interco too, but cmon, that's like saying Johar is better than Better Talk Now, or somethin!

An interesting thing about Megan's Interco is that he had a virtually identical record on turf as he did on dirt. I think he won 8 of 16 on each surface and had 5 seconds on one with 6 seconds on the other.

What I always thought was a shame about LDJ was that he was never given a chance to run long on dirt. He won going 8.5 on turf, but I guess his connections felt that his vast improvement in form came from shortening up in distance, instead of the more likely switch in surface.
