Don't want to read too much into it though, thinking maybe the Toga track took its toll on a number of some pretty damn good horses. Track has been tiring all meet, and was probably exceptionally tough yesterday.
As they say "the graveyard of champions". Maybe need to give Life Is Good a big plus for gutting it out.

the Spa now has as deep a dirt surface as you'll find anywhere - and trainers are rightly complaining
this is what I mean about Saratoga succeeding despite NYRA, not because of it
maybe do some modern research and create a surface that's safer and not a quagmire that runs horses into the ground, so that every race doesn't feel like a stagger fest in the stretch
