I completely agree on the rating. When a horse is the best in a race they can just go to the front but it is not necessary. For whatever reason I have been dying to find a horse coming out of this race. And Obrien has been a cash cow for me! With so many jinxes I am assured a good price! I think that race he ran will do him a world of good.
