Can anyone tell my why Kent had Whatsthescript on the pace, that horse is a stone cold closer.
IMO, I thought both Tapitsfly and Furthest Land had much better set ups.

How about the set up Fatal Bullet had? I'm sorry, but you have to win with that kind of trip. I thought he was the most disappointing of all the races. Looked like he was in the catbird's seat and you knew Zensational was already done after he didnt make the lead.

The sprint is probably the last race I should comment on. I used 5 horses in that race and leaned a little bit heavier on Capt Candy Man. Last I saw him, he was crossing the wire about 10 lengths behind Zenyatta

He was a huge disappointment for me, especially given the great trip he got.

Your first clue should have been I never touted him once this week, considering I banged his drum last yr and always went out of my way of saying good things about him. BTW nice call on Cloudy's Knight he ran a good race and you were right about him.

Furthest Land did have a good trip, I only caught the stretch of the turf race but if you say so then I dont doubt it.
