Yeah - that's such a tough trip at CD - especially when getting a big pace setup to boot.
Since we have no video to verify it it is easy for you to make your claim. She lost all momentum. She swung 10 wide at the top of the stretch, she didnt jus blow the turn. But of course the chart caller just made that up. Yeah a lot of horses make up that kind of ground in track record times. 2 wide, please. How exactly do you go from 2 wide to 10 wide without losing ground or momentum. Even in the velodrome this is not possible.
