Comparing PG to the group that ran yesterday (except Eight Bells who was awesome) is not right. Going into yesterday most people thought that this was a pretty slow/bad bunch. If you took BB and Eight Bells out of the equation and ran the race 10 times, How many different winners would you get? I know I played 5 horses in differnent combos and not one hit the board. The bottom line is that there are still alot of 3 year old races left in the campaign, Why rush into a race in 2 weeks against a horse that won for fun yesterday while being 4 wide the entire race, when there are better spots to run down the road? This might be a big year for the West Virginia Derby!
