No one will want the rail in a 20-horse field.

i don't know that i've ever seen a trainer say they want the rail ever since it's turned into a 20 horse race.

They really need to look at ordering the draw based off earnings or something.

Interesting idea but do you have to factor in two year old vs. three year old earnings?

Interesting idea, but pretty radical, isn't it?

Why on earth would Baffert want the rail with Bodemeister? I can't think of a worse place for that horse.
