Someone explain this to me
Keeneland Race 5, Sunday Apr 23:
10 shows strong early speed in his recent starts and elsewhere in the field only the 2 shows early speed. 10 breaks cleanly and has a chance to push on and move up to sit outside the 2, but Rosario decides to take hold 4 wide without cover into the turn and drift back to be in the second half of the field as they crawl through a 49 and change half going a mile on the turf: the furthest back the 10 has been through the slowest fractions of all his turf races. Rosario then tries to move up 4 wide late on the backstretch to put himself into contention but it's too late...as you might expect off those fractions, 2 wired them. 2 was 6-1 with 0 MTP and went off at 5-2.
All a bit strange...
