I was also surprised to see this horse go off at almost 5-1 with all the "buzz" about him.

Race set up very well for Cork.
The pacesetter Sacred, put up unmanigable
fractions and was followed. Cork showed the
ability to stay in striking range by the turn home as Sacred
collapsed and won easily.
The race set up for other horses as well, so I would
be happy if I had this horse.
