I had a trifecta with Alma D'oro on top, and Prado had the golden inside speed trip which is worth a ton at Gulfstream but instead chose to go W-I-D-E into the first turn.

I have to watch this race again, race replays is having some delays but should be up soon.
I love when jockeys go on a kamikaze mission to make sure ( or try ) to eliminate a fellow runner. It never works to the aggressor's benefit.

I thought ADO was the most likely winner because he was the inside speed, who should save all the ground. Basically, Im in total agreement with you that Prado they away every advantage he had to win the race. Although I doubt it was Edgar's idea to go on the first turn attack.
