Haven't gotten the group in the Ballston Spa figured out the last two times and not sure why that would change!!!!! If it wasn't for Steve pointing me to Laughing last time then it would have cost me even more......

Transparent is my longshot, could be peaking at the right time for this after not being up to snuff vs this bunch a few months ago.

Race completely changed for most when Palice Malice missed the break, but Will Take Charge was mid pack so the race was pretty fair for all.

I agree. The only thing I wonder is if Orb might have finished slightly better had he been asked later? Tough call though when you see the hole up the rail.

I cant blame the rider for any of that, sure maybe he has to be ridden for one burst because as a grinder he sure seems like a G2 type horse, he has no real turn of foot.

I've been trying to watch the live post-Travers show but it looks like the NYRA website went down. Anybody else having that problem?
