DrugS still can't understand why Cryptoclearance didn't wire fields given the speed he showed in his first start or two.

Horses like Cryptoclearence (who was before me) and Street Sense were more effective when deep closing tactics were applied.

Street Sense was a Street Cry for God's sakes ... maybe Neill Howard is a friend - but when you've got a Distorted Humor to a More Than Ready running pace figures 10 lengths slower than Giacomo runs ... you're not doing something right.

I agree that the recent tactics have been foolish.

Cryptoclearance was trained by Scotty Schulhofer, who could have trained the speed out of The Factor.

Cryptoclearance broke his maiden by 12 lengths going 7fs at Saratoga. I think it was his third lifetime start.
