We missed Titletown Five, he was the only horse on the rail the second turn in the Preakness and should have gotten one.
Keep in mind that a) the ground you see on the sheet is rounded off, and b) it\'s on the turns, which is usually all we get (I have the Parx trackman give us rail stretch daily because that place has so many dead rails, but it\'s extra work for them), and c) for whatever reason the dead rail is almost always a second turn phenomenon.
There\'s a lot of judgement involved in this. The sample size is small, and there are times in fact it may be the rail in the stretch, not on the turn, they just stay there snd stop running.
