I feel like you are playing soft toss with me Silver or baiting me. I wasn't going to bring it up on my own but you only see the horses in the stakes races.
Curious how his horses did fig wise earlier in the day.
Race 2 winner by 2 1/2 lengths. MSW. Dirt 2yo's. 4w on turn, carried 5w into stretch at equal weights. 2-1.
Race 3 winner by 2 1/4 lengths. Allowance. Turf 3yo's and up. Can't help but post the entire chart comment below about this one just for the entertainment value. ESPIED? This is beyond descriptive. But a ground saving trip at 120 lbs with others from 115-124 in the race. 2-1.
No mention on the board of TGJB's correct prediction on his best negative opinion of the seminar, Dame Dorothy. Well done.
Red Rifle and Got Lucky didn't run bad compared to their sheets and Stopcharging was at a number she has been at more than a few times now. But just "observing" the horses as they raced, Pletcher's stakes horses didn't show the same burst as the 2 earlier in the card and they obviously didn't win the stakes.

second bend, [b]found enough wiggle space[/b] and got eased into the two path at the head of the stretch, idled along behind a pair of foes,
lacking enough room to launch a rally of her own, [b]espied a freshlty-developed seam[/b] open up in the vicinity of the furlong marker,
had the rider commit to go through, boldly went on to split rivals to grab away the advantage for good a couple ofjumps shy of the
sixteenth marker, kicked away, crossing the wire put to a brisk hand ride.
