the chart does this horse NO JUSTICE, i hope some of the pro's like BTW and fatman, look at the race and tell me what they think. I had a small win/place bet on him, he was bet strong went from 10-1 down to 5-1 in a matter of 2 min. I liked his last 2 and thought he could win, HORRIBLE TRIP, i think he was much the best

The chart looks to me like she had the recipe of a bad trip.

From 4th by a head at the 1/4, to dead last of 8 at the 3/4, and then going 5 wide to catch 2nd by a head. The winner went 4 wide.

Chart seems to hint the 56-1 shot that went to the lead and stopped at the 3/4 really muffed things up.

I found the race on calracing.com. The 56-1 shot that stopped did most impair your horse of the entire field. The jockey for your horse was committed to the rail when the horses bunched up, and had nowhere to go but back and out when the longshot leader stopped.

You did catch your place bet at least.

And it did look like your horse was ready to go.

The chart doesn't catch it, but "Kate" essentially had moved to 3rd less than two lengths from the lead and was full of run before she had to take back to last between the 1/2 and 3/4.
