I don't know though ... freaking Nacho Friend - first off of a 7+ month layoff and first time beyond 6 furlongs sits just 3 lengths off that strong pace - makes first run while 4 wide the whole way around the turn ... and he still has enough left to finish 3rd beaten just 3 lengths.
The 5th place finisher in the race was beaten less than 5 lengths - and he had never won on dirt before and was beaten back to back in NY Bred N1X alw races.
I need to see one more from Awesome Act to get a better gauge.

I dont get it Doug? Everyone liked Nacho Friend... EVERYONE...Stve, Andy and Brian all touted him. He had to have something going for him, why cant Nacho Friend be pretty good and move forward next out, and Awesome Act is simply really good?
