I don't know if anyone caught TVG.....
Frank Lyons put on a stellar display for the ages. "The way Pyro looks today, they should all be 100/1 against him!"
That was just the start of it - after that he got up on horse back and delivered more great quotes.
According to the stats in the form, Steve Asmussen trained horses have made 292 starts on a synthetic track - won 12% - and have a $2 ROI of $1.07... a mere 46.5% loss on the betting dollar.
That does include his run at Presque Isle Downs last year - where his horses ran mind-bogglingly awful all meet long.
I don't know if it's just a fluky stat with a big sample size - maybe it has something to do with shoes for all I know - but he should probably stick to the dirt.
His babies seem to run great in the 4.5 furlong synthetic races - his synthetic ROI would probably be under a buck if you take those races out.
