This horse was just beaten 4 1/4 lengths by a maiden (technically not but he had never crossed the line first) earning around a 93 Beyer. Prior to that he was beaten 7 1/2 lengths earning an 89 Beyer. So that's two races with sub :47 half miles and two races with sound defeats. How does Doug O'neil expect this horse to handle an extra furlong while chasing an equal or faster pace? What next is Cobalt Blue going to run as well? He was only beaten 18 1/4 lengths on Saturday, that is not too bad. Throw in Notional, who appears weary at a 1 1/8 miles, and Doug O'neil could very well have the trifecta of the last three to cross the finish line. You never know Great Hunter might sneak in there to fill out that backend super, he of only two preps, a plan that has worked exactly once in the last 60 years.<BR/><BR/>LennyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
