TRIP NOTES FOR RACE EIGHT by The Wizard on Saturday, May 09, 2009

(5) PAISANO CREEK - without speed while saving ground, continued along the rail down the backstretch, waited for racing room until the stretch and then overhauled the leaders with powerful strides to win going away. (1) TURNPIKE TOMMY - just off the pace while directly behind the frontrunner down the backstretch towards the rail, was angled off the inside when going after that rival in earnest on the turn, collared and then eventually bested that rival, but was no match for the winner. (4) ONE TRUE THING - broke well to set a controlled and pedestrian pace while relaxed, held until the lead until turning into the lane and then gave way under pressure to finish third.
