I agree with everything you said here, except I find it hard to believe that NYRA souped up the track for Rachel. The way it is playing cannot be helpful to NYRA. This track really puts a damper on what should have been a great day as it has become virtually unplayable.

Hopefully it will create some playbacks and some to go against (Rightly So, Warbling) in the future, but this is tough to stomach right now on such a big day.

How Bulldogger is 9-2 on the board right now is beyond me, moves way up on this BS track. Interesting to see if JV just tries to go right down the pike with Discretely Mine and refuse to give it up to Bulldogger.
