All I know is the gate failed to fully deploy. It's no secret. Lots of people are aware.

It's not something I picked up on visually.

The malfunction, I mean. Not the Nipple.

IMO, the article in DRF is inaccurate. He absolutely did NOT break "several lengths behind all but one runner." He broke a fraction slow at most, but was hindered when the horse outside of him came in and slammed him. I'm not going to argue with the rider, as the head-on is tough to see, and if the gate malfunctioned in any way there should have been a refund ( if it did in fact malfunction ). However, exaggerating the circumstances doesn't help the story.

good call on DRF breaking the story.


I don't disagree with TLG's take.

Inside bias as today's card progressed. Golden rail for last few races.

My surface notes thus far: (translated from quirky short-hand to understandable form)

OCT 26-EXTREMELY SPEED-FAVORING..STRIKING DISTANCE REQUIRED FOR MINOR PLACINGS

OCT 27-PRO-SPEED, PRO-RAIL...VERY DIFFICULT TO CLOSE

OCT 30-VERY POTENT PRO-RAIL...MODERATELY SPEED-FAVORING, AS WELL

OCT 31-PRO-SPEED

NOV 3-FAIR

NOV 5-FAIR

NOV 6-A BIT ANTI-WIDE...NOT PRO-RAIL

NOV 7-NOTORIOUS LONGSHOT-DAY...5-PATH WINNERS WERE RECURRENT THEME

NOV 10-FAIR

NOV 12-FAIR

NOV 13-BASICALLY FAIR TO ALL STYLES, BUT TWO-WIDE OR THREE- WIDE TURN BIDS HAD EDGE ON GROUND-SAVING LEADERS

NOV 14-DEAD-RAIL COMPROMISED NUMEROUS SPEEDS

NOV 17-SLIGHTLY ANTI-SPEED??..SLIGHTLY ANTI RAIL??

If I get time after Mnr concludes, I'll post some recaps with takeaways, and some horses to watch for.
