Pick Viper pressed the pace early and was "Finished Early" entering the stretch. He was jusy galloping in from the 3/8ths pole.

It wasnt his turn today. Last time it was and he paid big and dummy me loved him and didnt bet the race right. Ended up winning some money on him but that particular day was a disaster as a whole.

Lawrence the non-Roman stunk today. Never interested in running.

They now just have to re-group and find a spot for him. The rating simply didn't work.

He's yet another horse to create a phony aura based on a loose lead going two turns on the souped up inner track rail. He joins Magna Graduate and Johannesburg Star as horses that fooled people not following the goings-on on the Aqueduct inner dirt through the first week of January. Anybody actually following those races didn't like Lawrence the Roman today...just as they didn't like Johannesburg Star and Magna Graduate when they bombed in their following races. Frankly, there's a much longer list than that, and thankfully an equally long list of horses that have won back following wide trips on that biased course.
The good news for trip handicappers is the gold rail has reappeared at Aqueduct ( certainly Friday and today ) and if we get a few more weeks of it there will be plenty of money to be made by those willing to do the work when the surface returns to normalcy as it was for the past month. Lawrence the Roman was 1:2? What a great game!

It wasn't the rating. Prado says he found a nice spot and in the backstretch LTR spit the bit and kept backing up. He never looked like he wanted to go. Per Prado, he came back okay, so he doesn't know what to tell us. Maybe LTR is sick of the NYC cold. It was "only" 32 degrees today and I was freezing my tuchus off anyway. Or he's sour already.

Is everyone blind or is this just a serious case of denial? LTR ran a 78 and 80 Beyer in his first two races when he wasn't loose on the lead on a conveyor belt track. Today was the same case and he probably ran around those figures. The one race he did get loose on the lead while riding the conveyor belt rail he got loose on the lead and ran a 96 Beyer. As BTW has already pointed out Magna Graduate, Barcola, and Jo Star fit the same profile. I don't know what is more laughable, that this horse was 1/2 today or that he was actually included as one of the 23 horses in the Derby future pool and still sits at 23/1.
