That isn't the reason Ellis' percentage is down.He is sending horses out there that have no gas in the tank. That filly had nothing yesterday.Incredibly hard work to get 3rd.Seems like his wins at the meet have been from claims that he rested for a month or two,and then dropped down to get a win with.It wasn't that long ago that he was winning like at well over 50% clip at a Del Mar meet.No,this is weird.He has sent D. Moon out there with nothing.Sent Datticus out there (twice) with nothing.Sent this filly out there yesterday with nothing.This is highly atypical for this barn.

well hopefuly California Sky has a little gas in the tank for Doug O'Neill...just happy to get by yesterday having selected the chalk with 48% of contestants. Could have been ugly...
