Winning Connection: Can Improve With Fairer Track

On a day where passing horses in the stretch was pretty tough, this guy found himself in the back of the pack early. He started to pick off runners entering the turn and just did get up for 2nd while no match for the winner. A fairer track and a better placing early might help his chances to reenter the winner’s circle.
