Default OK, I see that he was second, but..

How did the race look? I recorded it, but haven't been able to watch it yet. I was out to dinner with my mom and nephew. Nephew is playing video games.

How did drifty look? I am kinda sad right now, BUT HECK I DID PICK THE TRI FOR THE CONTEST. First time I have done that. But it wasn't that much of a stretch. So please spare me the "mean and harsh" statements of how he is a hanger, etc... Can you just tell me how he ran? It would be appreciated. Thank you.

He wasn't afraid to win, he just got beat by a horse that ran a huge race.
He showed up, ran a solid race, but didn't win.
Nothing to be sad about.

What was the winning margin? A neck, head, or over a length?

Ha ha. Just heard my mom tell my nephew to go take a shower. TV IS MINE!

About five. PD was the even money favorite, which amazes me.

I don't know about that. Suave ran a big one today, breaking the stakes record that Perfect Drift set last year. I don't think PD was "afraid to win." He was simply second best today. Suave looked tough.

I agree whole heartedly. Suave was much the best today. PD was the best of the rest. Sorry to hear about 3 hour nap. I like him today. After looking more closely and seeing his last @ CD I fell inluv w/ Suave. Wished I'd a bet more than 10 to win. He was really good today. PD as always ran good.
