If you get a chance to watch the replay of the Ewart both the horse and this particular drive by Tetrick are really worth the time to see.
Tetrick must have known he had a lot of horse because he was much more aggressive out of the gate with Ken Hanover than he has been in the last 4 or 5 drives. HOWEVER the star of the show is to watch him and the horse going round and coming out of the last turn. He had the horse so wound up that he sling-shotted out of the turn like a rocket after being parked out every step (a decent part without cover) and then being really wide from 2/3 into the turn into the stretch. Rarely see a horse move like that around a turn and into the stretch. I did not bet the race, but I know a lot of people who really follow Ken Hanover and had been disappointed in his performances (and perhaps Tetrick's drives recently). Hope they didn't give up on him here as it seems he was bet more heavily than his program lines would merit.
