Atlantis King showed a bit of Royality in the Sisters Pelikar Stakes this weekend. Atlantis King (my 3rd choice) was much the best, paying his backers $13.00 to his supporters. Atlantis, once again, showed his preference for the off-track. Atlantis sat 4th behind early pace setter Mr. Mistoffilees. Just past the 3\/4 pole, Atlantis bullied his way to the front end and ran off to a nice 3 length victory over his loyal subjects.<\/p>\n
Mr. Mistoffilees put in a worthy effort on the good track, holding on to second.<\/p>\n
Skybolt made a late rush from the middle of the pack to finish 3rd.<\/p>\n
My top pick, and the race favorite, Hawkfly Pharbart (5-2) ran flat on the track finishing in a dismal sixth place. Jockey Lawton commented that Hawkfly showed signs of disliking the wet surface. <\/p>\n
Sisson’s Gulch, my second selection, finished a respecable 4th in his first stakes appearance. I still believe there are good things in this horses future.<\/p>\n
22-1 War Gild was in the hunt early, running 3rd, before slowly drifting back and settling for a 5th place pay check.<\/p>\n
Cornfield County continued with his inconsistancy, taking the 6th spot.<\/p>\n
Death Cab challenged the pace early before totally collapsing and finishing behind the entire field.<\/p>\n
Top Notch Hero, Awesome Sky and Billdanziggold took the 8th to 10th spots respectfully. None of these showed much to be proud of.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
