I took a look at the TFigs for the day and was confused by the current race indicator indicating a race where none occurred. It must be a prompt of sorts for the day the TFigs are pulled.
Whats the controversy? There were a lot of sprints and dirt racing on a generally uniform surface. Woke Up Dreamin is an older horse that has obviously found more relatively recently. Foggy is a dang good three year old. Egghead is dead, perhaps in part from running hard to try and catch him.
Woke Up's negative four is a big number, but that was a very exceptional looking race. What did Beyer Score it, anyone know?
