That was one unbelievable race. I loved Riyadh. A fantastic racehorse. He could leave the gate like a jet. Presidential Ball was a great horse. I'm pretty sure that's who I bet in that one. I figured he would have the pocket. And Life Sign seemed to be in a difficult spot jammed between all those Robinson horses without their superior speed off the wings. What a drive by Campbell! As soon as he sees Morrill isn't going to let him go he backs his horse off and looks for a spot on the rail. Putting him away for those few seconds on that first turn is probably what wins the race. But then he has to come first up again. I kept waiting for him to fade. And he just wouldn't go away. You just don't see horses race that game. |

It was amazing to have three great pacers racing at the same time. You will find two have a great rivalry but those three just lit up racetracks. |

Riegle using Nuclear Design as a rabbit to soften up Riyadh. I think Life Sign may have won this one if he hadn't ducked sideways and got his wheel up under Presidential Ball. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=anq8PvIeXpY |
