BCJF: Dreaming of Anna was a strong favorite and drifted 4 wide on the first turn and the 2nd and 3rd finishers ran outside for at least part of the race.
BCJ: Street Sense stayed on the rail, but the 2nd and 3rd place finishers rallied from far back in the middle of the track.
Sprint: Thor's Echo was 3w despite being the 1. Friendly Island rode the rail as the 2. Nightmare Affair was 3-4w most of the race.
Distaff: Round Pond was on the inside most of the race, but the next three were the 12,13, and 14 and finished on the middle of the track.
Classic: The entire superfecta was out in the middle of the track, and the winner was widest of all.
there was no bias...that day
All 3 races on the undercard that day went wire2wire.
Which made me get off Street Sense and Circular Quay in the Juvy.
the rest of the card was fair.
