Seriously, we must be on the same tickets today. Wildcat Red clearly missed the break, but Saez was pumping for the opening quarter mile to get into the tail wind position on the very impressive Fast Anna. It was a terrible ride that saw Wildcat Red already spent after five furlongs.

(Given the choice of Saez, Lanerie, or Albarado, I would have taken Saez, so there are plenty of others to kick out first! Also, from the jockey race earlier in the meet, Saez's physical conditioning is second to none.)

I don't know what to say Scott, on paper Wildcat Red projected to sit right behind several that had speed, the 1, 5 and even the winner. Why, particularly after the break, he was pushing that horse all out when it seemed that Rosario was going to press the 6 is just inexplicable to me. It was an awful ride and decision making, what in hell was he thinking?

Well that was a microcosm of my meet. Alive on a Hundred dollar Double to the 1 and he checks late and has no chance. Gotta play it out but am looking forward to its conclusion

Jms I had 1 as well horse had to check 2x b4 getting railed would have liked to have seen him get a clean trip bc that pace was slow

It is mind boggling that off of his last race the 1 was not sent.

Reports were rampant about the speed of Fast Anna - in particular, the 58 3/5 breeze last weekend where the clockers were saying that the horse never blew hard. Sounds like everyone took back to take one run in the stretch.
