No one thought the Too Dim win in the Sprint was worth comment? Had Eddie Johnston on ATR Monday. You break 7-8 lengths behind a field like Too Dim did and you turn away in disgust thinking 'race over'. Terrific work by Miguel Mena to get Too Dim to the rail and just steadily build momentum to contention. Johnston explained how the gelding is most comfortable hugging the rail. Obviously got a pace to close into, but still a remarkable recovery.
