7/25 race 6 was wrong
 
Listen, look at the entries. A great field of veterans @ 6 f. And who won ? The youngest horse in the field, Again and Again, a 4 yr old. Don't tell me about Campo, that race, loaded with great veteran sprinters up to 9 yrs old was compromised by allowing that 4 yr old winner in that race. The conditions were just plain wrong to let that "youngster" steal that race.

Comments ?

You are very correct sir....unless you picked him, like Steve did.

With all due respect, it seems likes sour grapes. I'm still kicking myself for not including him in my Pick-3's. He had some back class and was a great price to boot. When he walked past me I thought he looked great and I still didn't lay a nickel on him. The conditions are just one more aspect of handicapping that makes this sport as challenging as it is.

It is clear races need to be written for 5 and up and 6 and up. This race shows that.
