Delta2tigr’s <\/EM>SEATTLE DELTA<\/STRONG> ($16) brought himself back to good form Saturday here in Old West Virginia with a convincing move on the turn, then rolling home for an easy 3 3\/4-length score in the L’Rod Bull Special.<\/P> WASSIE’S RAINBOW G<\/STRONG> came a’ runnin’ late to overtake regular rival DIAMOND HEAD<\/STRONG> for the place spot, scoring three points for two-time defending champion Wassie<\/EM> in the West Virginia Stakes Competition and putting him back in a familiar spot, first place. Ts1442<\/EM> gets two points for Diamond Head’s show spot earns and a tie in the standings for third with Texasace.<\/EM><\/P> While we were rooting for our contest friends, we have to say we’re a lot happier to see Seattle win on Saturday, rather than, say, Super Bowl Sunday. It was a good-looking return to form for Seattle Delta<\/STRONG>, further cementing his status as the best-ever son or daughter of Running Stag ever in the Sim. Add this score over a good track to a Grade I win on\u00a0a sloppy surface, and we’ve got a real top mudder here.<\/P> \u00a0<\/P> \u00a0<\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Contest trainers collect place, show<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":225,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1639","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-reviews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1639","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/225"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1639"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1639\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1639"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1639"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1639"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
