  • icyhotboo · I thought it was between him and Boisterous and when Boisterous didn't get the soft ground it left him alone. Anyone who challenged him would have taken themselves out too.25/49 are about right for turf · 279 days ago ·

  • gelded1 · I agree that Boisterous needed a slow or yielding course to have a shot and I too dismissed him for that reason. They were about 2 secs slower at the 3/4 and mile than the Secretariat Stakes that ran earlier at 1 1/4 .Smart ride by Ramon . · 279 days ago ·
