Cowtown Cat......

[JJP]

You have to play against those types. This is like Cobalt Blue coming off his slow paced win, but Cowtown Cat also had the benefit of the bias. He's not as good as he looks on paper, and horses often finish big after they've conserved their energy in the most efficient way. Bold Start ran a better race, IMO, and Reporting for Duty closed ground on the slow pace so Cowtown Cat realistically was no better than the 3rd best horse in that race, IMO.
