Archarcharch wins this baby and pays $31 to win - will need to see the replay - but I was watching him the whole way and he was wide on both turns and a little rank.

The two favorites ran 2nd and 3rd.

I can't tell whose performance was better in that race, that of Calvin Borel or Terry Wallace.

I saw Borel had Elite Alex stacked up about 7 wide on the far turn - at least he got him out of the gate this time though. All of the money came in on that horse.

You're focusing on the wides....yet it was the horse on the rail that was given no chance.

I would need to watch it again - I was pretty much only focusing on 3 different horses... and didn't get much of a feel from the track announcer.

Once I look over the pars and make my pace number is when I like to watch a race seriously because that way I feel like I have an idea where the strong and weak points of the race are.

That was quite a race call.

Exactly, Caleb's Posse had a very tough trip.

Von Hemel has a couple of runners this spring.... he had the roughest trip of all and I missed it the first few times through.

He looked to have plenty of gas but had absolutely nowhere to go.
