Rail today golden

[Port Conway Lane]

The first race looked like a replay of yesterday but the field was closely bunched the whole way and the two horses finishing far back (and who ran the rail the whole way) were maiden claimers running against horses coming out of derby preps.

The 2nd race winner circled around the pacesetter and outside horses closed ground late.

The winner of the 3rd was stuck on the rail through the first turn but came out 3 wide in the backstretch and around the far turn. The 7 was the only horse on the rail around the far turn and moved up 3 spots only to fizzle out through the lane getting passed by two horses on his outside.

The 4th race winner was clearly on or just off the rail the whole way in an uncontested pace. That hardly makes the rail "golden".

The track is changing by the hour. More data needed.
