Speaking of bets, there was a LOT of late steam for the Finger Lakes runner in todays stake, won, impressively by the 9yo Moonlight Song. Only his 18 start , and the 9th win. Baker can train.
Left the gate running and wired , where that style has not been the key to success for the most part. Jose tried to keep him off the rail, but he drifted back in , would probably have won by more if not for that.
Apparently , some smart money preferred Crackerjack Jones, pounded from 6-1 to 7/2 late. Not a great trip,looked done at the 1/4 pole wide, but came again to finish well enough. Ground loss there.
PS Time looked dicey to me and according to trackus this was the time, note the first 1/4 reported 22.05 in the chart, the rest close enough
22.62
45.79
1:09.43
1:15.86
