1/30 (GP): Forward Gal; Hutcheson (Gr. II's)

I thought Capt. Candyman Can did well in this race to show the maturity to back out of a 3 way duel, rate, and then come widest of all around the two frontrunners

I have no idea when it comes to distance pedigrees, how does the Captain look as far as a mile and a quarter is concerned?

Yeah, no doubt he looked solid. But I can't see that fig coming back too high.

You can't? Even though you admit to having no idea what the other times on the card were?

I mean, how slow can the other times be? If I'm wrong, I'm wrong. Just a knee-jerk reaction. Relax.

I just gave you them above. They're slow. Capt. Candyman's race was fast.

OK, well, I qualified my initial statement by admitting I hadn't been paying attention to times all day. And instead of kindly informing me that they had been slow, you insulted my post.

You're a freaking racing journalist, and you can't be bothered to take two seconds to check the day's times before declaring that the race was slow and uninspiring?

I'm no expert, but I would say he has something of a miler's pedigree overall.
