I saw that type of thing about 4 times in my first 25 years of following the game. I saw it 4 times from Baffert horses last week. We've grown numb to it but it was NEVER a thing many years ago.

I would not argue that. My point is more about a live runner in the big race that comes alive when layered over what appears to have been a significant track bias last time he ran. Whether he's 6-1,...
