That 91 in a $500,000 race for older horses is a real beaut.

It could be worse ... the same race was worth $1 million not long ago.

Am I the only one that would find a mythical Oklahoma Millions as interesting as the Sunshine Millions?

The 108 for This One's for Phil was boosted about 5 by the Beyer boys for some reason.

Is boasting a fig from 103 to 108 the same as boasting it for 60 to 65.. when you boast from 103 to 108 its about a 5% inflation but 9% in the other example.. Is there significants to this or is that a poor analysis?

Some reason?

Obviously because of the quick pace ... they've done it many times before in big races.

Remember the '01 Amsterdam when City Zip and Speightstown hooked up in an early war through insane fractions - and both lasted despite totally staggering home to a 1-2 finish.

They inflated City Zip's fig all the way to a 100 and Speightstown's to a 97 - a MUCH slower paced NY Bred maiden race at the same distance 30 minutes later went faster.

I think you would agree with me that they shouldn't do this ... because it unjustly rewards the suck-up closers.

how about Red River Thousands... a showdown of OK v. TX breds. Too bad Frank had to sell Lone Star and Remington.
