Thanks Pete, mb, and gorvy. That was just the 2nd one I've done, and I thought it was pretty fun.
I certainly can't complain about luck. I only got this far because a few races ago a rider in front fell off just before the finish line. I was more confident in today's pick than in many others. Flashover has been in the money 8 of 11 lifetime races. The New Zealand filly had a miserable 1st US race, another filly was first-time-on-grass, and another was coming back from a 5-month break, I was pretty sure the consistent Flashover could beat two of them. Wrong. I'll be interested in how many players (if any) make it through the meet. There will be around 40 left after today. Hope to see you here for the next Showvivor. --Dunbar
