We have different past performances.

Hopefully Unspoken Vow doesn't break in badly Again.

****, I called that one didn't I?

I couldn't catch the first few strides with my live feed, but I took time to see the head on, and he knocked the **** out of the 2 and the 1SongOLove. Knocked Song of Love off balance.

When you see a horse foul three or four times in its career, and then 2 of them are with CC Lopez(a "gate" jockey), and today he goes to Marragh you have to expect that. 2-1 that Marragh didn't even do the homework and know. If I had any horse draw inside that one in the future I would bitch like crazy. Outside and I let these suckers do their own homework.

This is rediculous. How many times can this horse foul up the start of races before someone notices?

It obviously had no effect on the win, and highly unlikely that it had any effect on the exacta. Pretty tough filly, for an average talent, and maybe some problems= that Better Again.

Debateable if that smash had any effect on Song Of Love hitting the tri or super. It wasn't the way you want to start a race that's for sure.



i like how the chart says Unspoken Vow "was bumped".

as if another horse bumped her.

DNF
Hopefully she was completely healthy and runs back in 2 weeks post position #2

It would be nice to see her square off against Proud Spell in the Mother Goose.

Thanks Jack. I figured it'd be in the mid-90s.

I will qualify this comment by saying that I thought Music Note looked like a legitimate Grade I filly yesterday, but this figure seems a bit high in comparison to other races yesterday (although I'm sure the card was a figure-maker's nightmare, given the weather conditions).

Very modest NY-breds in the 4th race went a mile in 1:36.4, exactly one second slower than Music Note ran a half-hour earlier (although there was a rain squall). What was the figure assigned to Rodeo Hand? Normally, I'd expect something in the mid-70s, but if Music Note was assigned a 97, then he should be in the mid-80s. Just wondering.
