He went a bit wide coming out of the turn, but before friday that 3-4 slot off the rail coming into the stretch has been a conveyer belt. Ask Gomez (oh wait we can't).
I saw it in person and the replays....I think LH had him regardless. Cohen got into PTT something fierce late stretch....while Prado gave a few taps and just showed him a little leather towards at the end.

Prado was already tapping LH on the shoulder at the 1/4 pole and PTT was still in hand and LH was never in tight like he should of been. LH ran a game race in a steller time but there is no way in hell that is not a closer race without that jock looking in his rearview mirror 10 times, plus if he knew he got away with soft fractions why look back, there is no way they are gonna close on a soft pace with those calibur of horses
