SUMWON: Game 2nd in Thriller..

[The Indomitable DrugS]

It was another nice effort....that's for sure.

Stone Grossard and I have had our differences---but, based on the fact that Sumwonlovesyou now has a career record of 6-1-5-0 in her lifetime starts over a fast main track---with her lone win coming at 3/5 odds---of course a nutrual observer has a right to speculate that the horse might be a "seconditis" type.

However, I haven't seen film on her prior---and, IMO, she was just beaten by a little better horse on both occasions. There is a reason why the winner today was a 3/5 favorite--and she was a 5/1 shot.

Inspite of the five seconds from six career tries on a fast main track stat---I believe NOTHING she's done in her last two races anyway, stamps her as the kind of horse who has charchter issues.

Most "seconditis" horses have these charachter issues---but, sometimes, they are just unlucky to find one a little better...and that's probably the case here--at least off of what I've seen in her last two.

Certainly a great effort---and I'm glad for Steve and Chuck and all of the partners.
