Nonetheless, a very powerful performance in what amounted to a second level allowance race based on the rest of the field (unless you're ready to call Indian Firewater a real Grade 2 horse).

Flip flop, flip flop.

You keep hanging on to that run-off can't turn lead it's honorable work, knish. You want to jump on board the Sid's train now or you figure might as well take a shot a rein breaks and he jumps into the stands?

I remember a noted brilliant horse guy in Cal suggesting all the Graded 3 year old races always looked the part of a second level allowance? Shirley, you must remember such posts from that well versed gentleman? FlipO
