Big race from Tizway today.... Met Mile never fails to deliver.

Rodman really blew-up the exotics.... big payoffs despite a 3-1 winner who was well noted in a variety of spaces as the horse to bet.

Watching Winter Memories today reminds me of Wonder Again, and when the filly/mare turf division seemed to be stacked year in and year out. Good for Toner to have another top notch turf distaffer. She was really impressive today. Two big efforts from the stakes winner this afternoon.

I really screwed that up. . . was a big fan of Rodman's a few years ago. Just didn't love his comebacker considering the slow pace.

Not to salt the wounds, but when a 3-1 favorite wins, and 2 of the 3 spots underneath are single digit horses, the Superfecta rarely balloons to $15k on a circuit like NY. It paid a lot like a Breeders' Cup race.

He ran Memories of Silver later in her 3-year-old year I believe in the BC Mile. She ran okay too. Not that Winter Memories needs to do that too though... but it's interesting.
