He finished 5<SUP>th<\/SUP> in the Sand Castle Golden turf Classic, which showed exactly that, he trailed early, and his late finish came not early enough. Will likely catch drifting runners, that can\u2019t get the distance, but a Top 3 finish will be hard to realize.<o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"><o:p>\u00a0<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US\">#12 <\/SPAN><B><SPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\">A CASE IN POINT(KY) 99\/1<o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/B><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"><A href=\"http:\/\/www.simulatedsports.net\/hr\/runtime\/prettyhorse.asp?hossnum=63219\">http:\/\/www.simulatedsports.net\/hr\/runtime\/prettyhorse.asp?hossnum=63219<\/A><o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US\">44 Races \u2013 7 Wins \u2013 775,159$<o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"><o:p>\u00a0<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US\">I guess Tsunami wants to set a new record of last place finished in a Grade 1, no more comment.<o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"><o:p>\u00a0<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN lang=FR style=\"mso-ansi-language: FR\">#13 <\/SPAN><B><SPAN lang=FR style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; mso-ansi-language: FR\">KHARTOUM III(IRE) 23\/1<o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/B><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN lang=FR style=\"mso-ansi-language: FR\"><A href=\"http:\/\/www.simulatedsports.net\/hr\/runtime\/prettyhorse.asp?hossnum=111571\">http:\/\/www.simulatedsports.net\/hr\/runtime\/prettyhorse.asp?hossnum=111571<\/A><o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN lang=FR style=\"mso-ansi-language: FR\">19 Races \u2013 3 Wins \u2013 154,146$<o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN lang=FR style=\"mso-ansi-language: FR\"><o:p>\u00a0<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US\">The 4yo Sadler\u2019s Wells Colt showed rising form when cracking 100 for the first time, finishing 2<SUP>nd<\/SUP> in an ALW 11f turf Race last time out, except that, there is no hope for this horse, likely outclassed all the way. <o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"><o:p>\u00a0<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US\">The Group 1 lacks a little in Depth, Rapid Grey, Rural Law and Rosenthal are classy horses with great careers, Questing Beast and Shriver Mine are up and coming horses, those 5 should battle it out for the Top 3, with the rest needing huge miracles, but these often happen in Racing&#8230;..<o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can the Old Man fire again?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":84,"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":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6318","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-previews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6318","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\/84"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6318"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6318\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6318"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6318"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6318"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
