I hope you bet that exacta boxed, and the plodder Andromeda's Hero for tri. You had it nailed.

Last I looked the "plodder" was well clear of the rest of the horses and finished a whole length behind 2nd at 19-1. There was no beating the winner today...I would say he ran a very good race.---he was also much closer to the pace today and still finished well.

That is the very epitome of a plodder....a horse that always clunks up in the TRIS and SUPERS, etc...he is not fast enough to win at Gr. I or II level but he is always eligable of picking up the pieces of tired and beaten horses to post a big price on the board....this is EXACTLY what well-known plodders do on a regular basis....they have a slow, grinding, gradual close that usually rewards them with a non-threatening small piece of the purse...Andromeda's Hero wasa never going to threaten in that race....
