Gus, Sincero ran a big race. Was probably the best in there, tough racing luck.

Can anyone even fathom a guess why Wolfson would have run Omega Cat and Speak Easy Gal in the same race, instead of just winning both the 9th and 11th races by open lengths? Him doing that, and Allies Event scratching, really screwed up the sequence for me.

Golfer, I concur with Sincero, I've followed his career and he's definitely a hard knocker with some bad luck. I have a history with him and have been able to cash some tickets with him hitting the board in the past, but not this time. His 2nd to Books Ahead at Gulfstream was a bang up race and his 3rd (48-1) to Dunkirk's Alw win was profitable for me.

Wolfson threw a 3-1 curve ball at me as well when he decided to run Speak Easy Gal in the tougher race IMO as she just held off her stablemate (Omega Cat).

Wolfson has 4 scheduled to run today at Calder in the Miami Mile.
