i'm not saying it's the only reason, but it's a big reason why-people love closers that come flying right at the end. they never get accused of stealing a race like a confirmed front-runner. the link below is to an article on bloodhorse. honestly, i didn't read it-and just barely glanced at it when i went to see if it was still available. the title alone was what caught my eye the other day.
