Default Speed at CD

The first second and fourth were all up near the pace in this race - although the pace wasn't much, 47 and 4.

I used Street Sense to get a price in the PH contest.

It's all about getting to the rail in the stretch.Back to back horses coming out of the 1 hole.Patrick got to the rail in the 1st race too.Shuffle the cards,and we will see what happens on a fair track on another day.

He got the rail. But he had so much more than the others... Was not even close, he fired thru and that was it. He would have won out from the rail with that clean a trip.

Soon as he got to the rail in the stretch it was as if he was a ball that slid right across the concrete.I don't have a problem with that horse winning,but I know the 10 length margin is due to the fact the rail is so much firmer to run on than the rest of the track.

He was a deserving winner but, the rail is like a freeway it seems. At this point it really looks like it moves you up.
