I actually was thinking the same thing that PG was. He never broke out of a gallop basically.

I doubt he'd do it though, but I think if ML wasn't hurt yesterday, he'd trounce those horses in the Forego.

I might be wrong but I thought I heard Edwards say he caught a quarter in the race or something. I was drafting my Fantasy team and trying to watch at the same time in a loud bar so I could be wrong.

Yeah, you are the second person to mention that here. That would be problematic, though I have to admit, I don't know what grabbing a quarter means.

Anyone?

I was there in person and he was bleeding profusely from his fetlock, when a horse clips the back of their fetlock ( ankle) with the hoof of the back foot it's called grabbing a quarter.

Sounds like something M LUTE would do. This horse should of been called "Baby Fry Loot." Hasn't he been beaten as major chalk in 4 of his last 6? Unless it's sloppy, I just don't understand playing this individual.

That sounds like something The Indomitable DrugS would do.

You know when they do it, seen it happen plenty in the morning during gallops. Mainly because of clueless gallop guys/girls.
It looks painful, kinda like watching someone get hit in the O!O with a baseball.
