This is crazy. They scrape the inside and every horse that gets the rail or to it is winning on the dirt.

Sure looks like it. Except this one came off the rail to go around. I though once he had the inside Bordonaro would keep on going. Thor's Echo is actually a miler type - he has won a stakes at 1 1/16.

Well, I'd say he did run with Bordonaro in Calif. That was a fine race for him. And it was just his 2nd since Dubai, with the other one being on grass.
