Title: Davona Dale Upset
Post by: APny on March 04, 2019, 11:48:16 PM

Other than to say the fast horses didn\'t show up, does anyone have a theory as to how the 2 slowest horses in the race finished 1-2?  I know this happens on occasion but I can\'t remember it happening in a graded race like this.  Totally impossible to have off the sheets.

See the Holy Bull as another example. Tip of the cap to any TG board members who battle the Gulfstream dirt races.

GoodLuck,

Please correct me if I am wrong.

I’ve heard Jerry say that when first time Florida, horses may not run their race. If that is the case and that she has only ever won with a lead, then I’m kicking myself for getting lazy (cheap) and singling her. Obviously, I did not hit the late horizontals (or any) this weekend, but this particular sequence has me thinking I missed one.
