A better start by Stay Thirsty actually would have helped Toby's Corner a little bit - had Stay Thirsty broke well and was positioned forward from the start - Castro wouldn't have been quite as focused on getting into a wrestling match with TC.

I noticed that, did they look at the start or just let it slide cause the gates were so close to opening?

Castro probably would have done it anyway.

Did you catch Vic's comments on TVG on Stay Thirsty's return. He is in love with Brethen and his blinding 83 yet he was highly disappointed in Stay Thirsty. Colt comes off the bench and wins in OK fashion in a decent time, seems ok to me, what's so bad. Was the goal for Stay Thirsty an electric performance in the Gotham?

I remember him knocking Stay Thirsty's performance - I thought Carrouthers was the one touting Bretheren though.

Norman Asbjornson had an old-school work tab that included 2 8 furlong works which really peaked my interest. Based upon that and his connections whom I don't notice too often in NY shiping him in, I felt they truly thought he had a shot. I bet him to win , it didn't work out as I didn't back him up but I thought he ran a great race..

His trainer is a lifetime profitable ROI guy in route races. Him stretching anything out is a good angle ... that horse couldn't outrun a goat sprinting. He's had two big upset wins routing - and a 40+/1 2nd place from three starts now.
