P Dub. The East Coast Bias is so bad. None of our west coast horses get much love and certainly not our football, baseball and basketball teams. I rag on SI's Peter King all of the time about what a hideous bias he and other top east coast scribes have.
I seem to remember a nice little match race in 1938 between the "elite" eastern establishment and their highly superior War Admiral vs our little "rat" from the West Seabiscuit. We all know how that wound up.
Tiago was the only horse really running late. From a betting perspective I really wish he would have come second as that would have made my year so far.
Lastly - I LOVE seeing such humble and classy connections like the Moss's and Sheriff's having success. I hope they spring another shcoker on the establishment May 5th
