The race was a bit of a train wreck.
Malagacy got off badly and then was bad after making the lead.
Conquest Big E kind of hopped at the start, didn't get into right away, then got checked along the inside trying.
Send it In broke down just as the race was picking up.
Irish War Cry was ridden passively most likely to avoid getting involved with Malagacy.
When Economic Model has the lead turning for home you sort of know the pace had to be slow. I'm glad I didn't get involved because of all the layoffs. I wouldn't have been on the winner if I was forced to make a play.
