As far as Ghetto goes, I mean lets be honest, a horse like that breaking from the outside is hard to even fathom.
And check out the chart calls that day, 3 times, and this is RARE for a chartcaller to say, the chart said lost footing next to the horses running line.
Many horses simply can't grab it.
Wagering on races conducted over poly is a fools errand.
Ball Four? I mean, please. I can see how he could be played as a poly specialist in that race but no way would he even hit the board if the race was on dirt.
I'll let others play Keeneland, no thanks for me. I have zero interest in playing a surface in which Beautiful Bets can beat a field like that going two turns.

I find it just as easy to handicap PolyTrack than the dirt at Turfway. Now, I didn't have Ball Four and he won based on luck. Perfect Drift and Premium Tap had awful trips. But both seem to like the surface, they got horrible trips. And when it comes to Juve races, well you just never know. Remember Wilko????
