RACE TEN OBSERVATIONS by The Wizard on Saturday, March 21, 2009

Very game win by the 2-1 favorite TIZAQUEENA who rated beautifully on the lead from the start. Shadowed by PRETTY SQUALL to her outside and SHYTOE LAFEET to her inside. Put both away in mid stretch. Came in on the tiring SHYTOE LAFEET at that point under left hand whipping forcing that one into the rail while checking sharply. All out to hold off the fast closing SHARBAT. NANS JOY came on too late to be a closing third. UPON REVIEW OF A STEWARDS INQUIRY AGAINST THE WINNER FOR INTERFERANCE WITH SHYTOE LAFEET, THEY DECIDED TO KEEP THE ORDER AS IS. (I AGREE WITH THEIR DECISION AS THAT ONE WAS TIRING WHEN THE INFRACTION OCCURRED AND IT WAS NOT INTENTIONAL BY THERIOT WHO WAS ABOARD THE WINNER).

THIS WIN GAVE TRAINER MIKE STIDHAM HIS THIRD VICTORY ON THE CARD.
