That was really odd. I can't wait to bet Midnight Billy back off that effort. He tired late as you would expect, but he was still in contention late.

SS ran really well. I'd like to see them target the Manhattan next year.

If Midnight Billy had shown even an ounce of early speed in any of his previous 12 races it wouldn't have been so curious. But he hadn't, and I can't imagine what Lezcano was thinking, other than trying to get Straight Story beaten.

I agree with everything, other then betting MB back. I dont think he is much horse.
