awful, awful race, but interesting to watch to see if Game Winner flashed any 'brilliance'...
Game Winner -
Was an 'odd' race shape...
Just 'disregard' the early fractions of the leader (was it)Kingly? I forget ... That was not actually the pace, as no one took him seriously at any point (including his own jock, who was there 100% to set up GW, with no intent on winning unless something extremely random happened)...
Was already slow early IIRC, but you would shade the pace even softer,
because of that, the race shape didn't develop early, Game Winner looked uncomfortable early, and the race looked awkward early, The Doug O'Neill horse ran an improved race, but eventually Game Winner settled in and out-classed his overachieving rival.
Did not show any flashes of 'brilliance'. Didn't show anything particularly negative either.
Just a paid workout, as it appeared to be before the race. Hakell? or Travers? or what next?
