That horse carried 8 lbs of overweight in the prior allowance race.
Also, why doesn't this jockey get a bug? Is it possible that she has won enough races to not be entitled to a bug? Can a jockey turn down a bug? If that is what happened, then the overweight on this horse was far greater than even what has been talked about on this thread. It is conceivable this horse has carried 18-20 lbs more than required by the rules of racing.
