I can't believe this race isn't getting more love.

This was like a Gatti VS Ward toe-to-toe brawl between two bitching sprinters.

How many thousand times more fun to watch was it than one of those high profile Grade 1 synthetic routes where everyone trots along early, the field bunches up, and a looping winner takes it?

Those races are the equivlant to watching great defensive fighters with big nerf gloves and headgear on skillyfull dance, duck, and jab in a super oversized ring. A pitty pat contest.

Sometimes I wonder about you guys.

How many of you sip on Cosmo's through a straw and smoke Virginia Slims?

Hey, some us mentioned it in the main Sunshine Millions thread! Yes, it was a really fun race. My favorite of the day. I suspect the lack of enthusiasm has less to do with the 43 half and more to do with the exacta returning what, $10?

Cosmos are soooo 1998, btw.
