Why isn't Grant Jack included with your two from the Smarty Jones? He led them along on their merry chase in the fog.

I don't like JP's Gusto and will probably play both Elite Alex and Ghost Is Clear.

Grant Jack had position - the other two were both hung out to dry on the first turn in a race that produced an insane fast early-slow late race shape.

Archarcharch wins this baby and pays $31 to win - will need to see the replay - but I was watching him the whole way and he was wide on both turns and a little rank.

The two favorites ran 2nd and 3rd.

I can't tell whose performance was better in that race, that of Calvin Borel or Terry Wallace.

I saw Borel had Elite Alex stacked up about 7 wide on the far turn - at least he got him out of the gate this time though. All of the money came in on that horse.

You're focusing on the wides....yet it was the horse on the rail that was given no chance.
