Just may be in attendance for this one.
Hansen ran an excellent race, and picked up a nice check for his connections on the way to Louisville.
Connections are considering the SF Mile at GGF at the end of the month.
Is Charles town one of those 5f "bullring" type of race courses? I assumed that after watching the 3 turn 9f race last nite.
This horse has turned out to be better than the 2 overrated 3 yr. olds Mike had last season.
I don't understand the constant nit-picking by Porter over assigned weights. Just accept it and go out prove that you have the best female horse in the U.S. without the drama.
I'm looking at Copponi. His experience here and the local hot jockey just looks like a win to me.
This race, on Tapeta Footings, could set up well for SYT, as turf horses transfer very well to the tapeta surface.
In a 10f race, breaking from outside post should not mean much. The tapeta usually favors closers. I would be very surprised if Royal Delta, a damn fine mare, becomes a factor in this race.
That one seemed to come from that dark area between the glutes.
