Have the jocks not seen Gladiatorus run before?

If he gets an easy lead, he wins. Never eben thought about him getting that easy lead in a race like this.

that was shocking, we all expect a cracking pace and he's let loose on the lead, race was over after 3 furlongs - Prevsis was unbelievable to come from where he did!!

My thoughts exactly, Brock.

Why on earth was he allowed such an easy lead? That was the most competitive race on the card (or so it looked) and he was allowed to hack over the line.

What were the jocks thinking? Surely they knew they had no chance if they went no pace?

I looked at this horse at the Fasig tipton sale in 06. Remembered him as a nice horse but talked myself off of him because his dam's produce record was so bad. Oops....
