She seemed to be as big of a captain obvious horse as there is.
But congrats on the exacta and good luck the rest of the way.

As much as I did not like Mother Russia... Serling and his partner had her on top and Tammaro had her as unbeatable. I kinda got sucked in to her just not losing. As far as races 2-3. I thought the maiden in the 2nd was a lot less likely to win then the Rice, even though I was not sold on the Rice.
