Default Ready's Echo

I missed a small segment of the show from Tuesday 9/18 when talk came up about a horse that came from out of the clouds in a 5.5 furlong MSW race at Saratoga.

Steve thought maybe The Roundhouse, but I know exactly who that caller was talking about.

Ready's Echo was about to get passed by the ambulance at the head of the stretch back on 8/8 at 'Toga, then came through the finish line like an absolute blur, running 2nd to Motts Z Humor.

This horse actually startled Durkin during his call, kind of funny.

Ready's Echo, trained by Pletcher, ridden that day by Johnny V, has no listed works or races since that day. I too am curious why no sightings of this horse.

I immediately watchlisted this horse and have been waiting patiently. Maybe with everyone getting off Pletcher at the moment, if this horse does appear sooner than later, might be a small overlay, who knows.

To quote Durkin that day, at the end of an ordinary race call to that point "WOOW, Ready's Echo from another county, up for second".

No exagerating here, had to have been 20 lengths from the lead turn for home. Incredible.

Just thought I'd share. It was Saratoga 8/8 Race #6. Worth watching.
