New World Record 4.5 F........on polytrack
 

Two year old, One Hot Wish ridden by Rafael Bejarano. TVG said it's a new world record 48:87

She ran the last half furlong in under 3 seconds?

Sounds too fishy for me.

EDIT: Unless the internal ones are off too -- but doesn't it seem a little off for her to go 21.45, 46.05, 48.87?

Refresh the link, they just changed the chart to 43:05 for 4 F

That is freaking blazing. Ward is on fire with his 2 year olds.

I just read that Godolphin is buying him privately for 5 million

Indeed, didn't he have that nice filly on the opener last friday?

Ok, something wasn't right about it!

Can't wait to watch that one when I get home.

She flew................................

i dont think its a him, i could be wrong but i think One hot wish is a filly,

ok, that reduces the price to 4 million

Polytrack is too damn fast...

Now that I think about it -- the "track record" was established when? Last Friday?

During last week's opening, there was not "track record" listed on the results charts.

I realize they probably didn't ever run any 4.5's on the poly last fall, because the distance was obsolete for 2 yo's by that time of the year.

So this was really only the, what, fourth race at this distance on this track?

Not saying it wasn't blazing fast, but the track record portion of it may be a little overhyped. All of the Keeneland track records (except for turf racing) come from either the fall meet of the early days of this one.

correct. Still fast time!

Oh, plus I just realized the original post said WORLD RECORD. oops.

LOL... you can find him on the other board. :p

When you've got babies doing 9 and change for 1/8, that kinda tells you something, doesn't it? It's really fast, Baba...

Yes it does.

Where's your boyfriend today?

I already told him you're my pimp, B. No substitute.
