by the same token, pulpit is #6 for turfers, ap indy nowhere to be found. but many think that turf = poly and vice versa, so who knows?

i don't think pyro is an automatic toss, but i wouldn't bet him either-not at the odds he'll be.

THat's on money won, correct? And how much of that was from AP Excellent? Since I started tracking, of 34 AP Indy runners making their first start on synthetic, only 3 won and that returned about $28. That's well below $1.00 returned for every $2 wagered.

Didn't an AP Indy just win the Ashland?

no, ap indys top synthetic horse is adriano--one who's probably heading to ky based on his form on anything BUT dirt.
bertrando is one showing good poly #'s, for anyone who is interested.

I have no idea why people bet Pyro so heavily. As I said before the race (and as anybody with a functioning set of eyes could see) his works there were horrible, and there was really no reason to think he would like this surface.
Sometimes it shocks me how many people still think form from one surface has any significance whatsoever on the other.

I still would have liked to have seen SOMETHING from him today.
