RACE NINE OBSERVATIONS by The Wizard on Saturday, February 28, 2009

8-1 winner WANNA CUDDLE, making her grass debut, sustained a nice wide closing rally to be much the best. TENSAS PALMYRA got the jump on the winner but was unable to keep pace in the last 1/16th of a mile. Tensas came out in deep stretch bumping SEVEN SEVENTY THREE off stride. There was an inquiry but the stewards left the same order of finish. SUNDAY IN THE BAY cluncked up for a well beaten 3rd. Top 2 were much the best of the rest.
