This happens frequently in pace collapses.

That doesn't happen frequently. If it did, you would constantly see horses getting beat by 20 lengths and then come back a month later and win their next start. That does happen occasionally but it's pretty rare.

If this would have been a normal "pace collapse" race, QR and Haynesfield would have put away FD on the turn and taken the lead turning for home and then collapsed somehwere around the 1/8 pole or later.

If QR ran his best race, he could go :45 and change at this distance and he would still last past the 1/4 pole. He may come to a walk after that but he wouldn't be throwing in the towel at the 3/8 pole.

What did Blame get for the Foster? I would guess that would be his other big number. Obviously he's a much better horse at Churchill downs than anywhere else. He was the logical horse for the course today.

His Foster was no higher then a 105, Im 2 lazy to look right now. His other big # was the Whitney, not that either is HUGE.

Foster was 103 and Whitney was 111. For what it's worth, Gomez said that this is the best race Blame has ever run for him.

I don't use DRF so I don't know, if it's 105 then that's lower than I thought, however he sure seems to have an affinity for the track at CD.
