RACE SEVEN TRIP NOTES
by The Wizard on Saturday, May 23, 2009
5-1 first timer, CRUISE, broke sharp. Rated nicely by Emigh from the start. Faced a stiff challenge on the far turn, as the 6-5 favorite GILDED TREASURE made a menacing wide rally to challenge. Fought that one off in mid stretch, then dug in gamely, to hold off the late charges of RUN FOR IT and SWEET ARIETTE. Run For It was probably best, as she was pinned to the rail, racing in tight from mid stretch to the wire. Jock wanted desperately to ease outside, but could not, and she continued pinned along the wood. Found some room to ease out with just yards to go, and was gaining on the winner with every stride. Sweet Artie, closed steadily widest in the stretch. Improved effort. Too Divine closed well too late along the rail. The favorite was overbet and awful.
