Maybe he was thinking "I've got the best horse and they're going very fast up front and they'll come back to me".........which is exactly what happened.

Thats all well and good on a track that where the winners WERE NOT coming from the first group race after race. Ballsy strategy by Smith for sure.

Timeform labeled the track yesterday as being fair. Most races had slow to fair paces.

I like what i saw in the first two races. Favorite coming wide off the pace in the first. Favorite wiring the field on the inside in the second..There should be no excuses for anyone today...
