Pleasant Prince - excuses?

[Gaining Ground]

if you look at thursday and friday at keeneland the bias is more noticeable.

thursday there were 7 main track races. races 1,2,3 and 8 were won wire to wire. race 4 the winner was on the pace early then dropped into a good spot and race 5 the winner dueled inside on the pace with the runnerup. so, 4 of 7 wire to wire and 2 more on the pace. thats 6 of 7.

friday there were 7 main track races. races 2,3,6,8,10 were won wire to wire. race 1 was a baby race and race 4 the winner was tucked in, close to the pace. 5 of 7 winners wire to wire. 6 of 7 were on or near the lead.

it didnt hurt being on the pace thursday and friday, thats for sure.
