Casino Drive

Looks like the fig on the Darley runner, Unbridled's Heart, will be very slightly higher than Casino Drive.

With a 5.75 second difference in a one-turn Belmont Route at those distances - isn't the Peter Pan supposed to get a number 5 points faster?

I think if you look at the 10th race you could make a case that the track speeded up a little bit.

I thought I said that already.

My thoughts watching were the maiden was more impressive. I only looked at the longer races to get a quick measure, will look at the whole card tomorrow.

You are correct...I merely stated it as fact.

Did you watch the headon closely; especially on the backstretch?

[cmorioles]

No, just the live feed. He won so easy I'm not sure I'll ever watch that head on. What am I missing?

2nd time starter running right up against the rail, had to be worst part of the track, till he entered the stretch; probably did at least half the backstretch lefty, as well. I realize he saved ground while the 5 was outside.

Kent is either the most confident jock out there or he's nuts. He almost never rides the rail (not like this) and he can't be that familiar with this horse to trust him the way he did.

do they run clockwise or counter in Japan?
