I'm kinda confused here: how did he look so good? If Gomez splits horses rather than waiting for GH to pass and then swinging SAM P out, then GH really gets extended to win the race. THis is SAM P, 5th or 6th stock in the Pletcher barn.

I also particularly liked how HE QUIT when bothered in the stretch run of the BLuegrass while SS didn't.
