That is a VERY interesting observation and makes perfect sense to me. You can't "dig" into it as much it would seem.
We at LaD really wanted Happy Ticket to run well because she would become the all-time leading Louisiana-bred. From the start, even in the gate, she never looked pleased and was then hindered further by a tough trip. Give her clear sailing and I still don't think she would have done much today. From the start she didn't look like she wanted any part of the racing. Maybe next time.
