Obviously, Life In Shambles is no stellar work horse, or he wouldn't have debuted for a tag...yet he obviously got the better of Tonalist in their final workout.

Seeing Tonalist's final work was a huge psych-out for me...and I've been a sulky bitch about it ever since the race finished.
I'm sick of all the workout deconstruction and back stretch chatter. "This one has sore feet, that one didn't gallop out.....blah, blah" The tweets, the report cards, the micro analysis. Too much information is right. Either a horse has talent or not so much.
