I thought race came up very weak , I know Brandon Blvd better Horse than that. Unimpressive but Dunn figured out a way to get him home . Maybe Zeron’s Horse choked down , hard to believe he could be that empty off of that trip. Burke’s Horses right on the money , it looked like Yannick was going to pay 30 bucks in the Meadowlands pace for a second there.

Agreed - was shocked at how few leavers there were especially given how chaotic the stakes races have been to the half the last few weeks. Quarter in 26.3 and half in 54 just isn’t that crazy right now given how well the front end is holding up. You have to do a Capt Optimisitic suicide mission these days to bring the backfield in play
Also thought the same thing about Sweet Lovin Lou but he did end up getting home in 26:2 so not really walking. Zeron had him in a great spot both on the NA Final and here but the horse seemed to flatten out in both. In both cases he raced better in the elim - may just be a horse that needs an every other week schedule

I don't like staring at fractions--but a half in 54 for horses that go 148 is actually soft
