This really isn't true. Yeah, it was easy to toss closers, but there were several races that appeared to be loaded with speed, then one horse, at random, would be crawling sideways on the lead. I appreciate biases as much as anybody, but this one wasn't helpful at all, it was detrimental.

Luckily you don't have to play 1x1x1 in exotics.

Well my picks sucked today.

Anyway, found this for anyone who cares...

Interpatation to wait for Joe Hirsch

Interpatation was one of four horses scratched from Saturday’s Grade 2, $150,000 Bowling Green Handicap. Trainer Robert Barbara said he felt Interpatation needed more time and will point him to the $500,000 Joe Hirsch Turf Classic Invitational, a race he won last year at odds of 43-1.

Also scratched were Grand Couturier, who is being pointed to Sunday’s Northern Dancer at Woodbine, Gabriel’s Hill, and Southwest.
