The DRF chart gives a full and detailed explanation of her trip, so even those that didn't see it will know about it.

I was on this horse in her American debut back in January, when she got a terribly troubled trip in a race she was loads the best. Then Mr Pugh decides to put this maiden in a 1 7/16 allowance race, where she got a wide trip to nowhere. He scratched her a week ago when she drew the rail, one can only guess as to why, and then the nightmare of nightmare's yesterday. Many turf horses seem to find trouble frequently, because of the way the races are run, and not having that "turn of foot" to extricate themselves from tight spaces. I have no idea if she is one of those or not, because she hasn't had a chance to prove it yet, one way or the other.

Default wet one

you watch thousands of races and every once in a while you see a ride that you claim is the worst one you have every seen. well wet one's ride might just be that. between win money and a one number pick 3 i hate to think how much that ride cost me.
