From the 4th at Aqueduct today...2YO MSW on the turf. Had no chance after blowing the break today. Came running at the end to finish 4th. Will bet back next out.

He broke a little slow.

Honestly, don't hurt yourself running to bet this horse back.

Not sure. I just think your horse didn't have a particularly tough trip and considering how it was bet will hardly be great value next time.

Thanks for the opinion. I will have to go back a watch the replay a few more times before deciding to bet back or not.

I think the break cost him 2 lengths, but that was the only trouble he had. I think he closed very well (beaten about 3 lengths) into a 2nd and 3rd 1/4 that were both run in :25 and change. Price will determine.

I didn't think the break cost him that much but I care less about slow getaways than most people.

If they are bumped and/or squeezed out of the gate I think it's a bigger problem. He seemed to just break a little slow.
