This is like the traditional week that track super's use to showcase their ability to soup up racetracks.

Yesterday, a Ward baby at Churchill went 50 flat for 4.5 furlongs, breaking the track record by 2/5ths - which is a giant margin at a distance that short. I remember 9 years ago when Chilluki won a 4.5 furlong baby race on Derby week and got a 109 Beyer .. her final time was 51 flat .. a full second slower.

Also, you had another 1:32 and change Westchester yesterday. Who can forget how insanely fast the track was on opening day at Belmont the year Najran equaled Dr. Fager's 1:32 1/5th mark.
