It was a combo of - I believe Nakatani on Liquidity and Bridgmohan on Zanjero that both moved off the rail just in the nick of time for Borel to not lose any momentum.

Win Willy has to prove his race is true on a dry track. Not only does he have great wet track breeding ... but coming into the race - his trainer Mac Robertson was 16-for-52 (31% wins) $2.52 ROI lifetime with all routers on a wet dirt track. Now he's 17-for-53 with a $4.65 ROI lifetime.

If Win Willy doesn't prove he's close to the same horse on a fast dirt track - Mac Robertson might get the DrugS "wet track trainer" label that Cannon Shell covets.
