Credit for what?

He got an excellent pace to close into and was beaten double digits....

He did however manage to outrun similar styled Cool Gator...who could only manage a 5th as the 11th choice in the betting.

Hey, I got beat a similar margin in my ski race today.

I was a proud recipient of an Amstel Light blanket for that.

All the colts had the paceto run at and they melted. Only one horse ran these fractions{BB}.Maybe all the negative posters can get behind the CLASSY GOODLOOKING horse again and bet him down to 5/2.

Who are you talking about?

Who's the classy good looking horse?

Fast paces best setup deep closers...not stalkers, pressers, or mid-pack types
