Working immediately after the renovation break over a “fast” track, Friesan Fire reeled off fractions of :11.20, :22.20, :33.60, :45.20 and galloped out six furlongs in 1:14.

Sheesh ... he galloped out his final furlong in 16.20 seconds? ... the worst trotters around can do that pulling a buggy. I imagine going that slow in a gallop-out isn't uncommon .. but after tearing it up for 5f you'd think momentum would help you through the next one.

With the "gallop out" - his 6f time of 1:14 flat would have translated to a 48 Beyer.

The Fat Man is gonna be stoked that you are doing Beyers for workouts.

I know Stevie Wonderboy had an extremely fast work before the '05 Breeders' Cup Juvy. I remember that he was the fastest of something like 145 horses at whichever distance it was, but I can't remember the time/distance exactly.
I just remember it was fast.

I'm kind of bummed out ... I thought it would set him off.

Now I feel like it was all for naught.

He liked me enough at one time to share his 'Fat Graphs' concept with me and run it by me before he ever made it public in a post.

As I started to sour on synthetic tracks - and once jokingly compared him to Fischer - he flew over the handle bars and has been a vocal Anti DrugS force ever since.

Foolish Pleasure worked 56 and a piece ( maybe 56 2/5 ) before the Match Race.

That track was a highway however.

Was it as bad a track as CD in 2001 Derby?
