First, you wonder with Amac in a speed dual with Noble to the quarter how could his horse hold up to finish 2nd against some pretty nice horses. At the 3/4 Amac to me was borderline overly aggressive hitting his horse. Also, I can't believe that track favors the front runners that much. I guess that's why Merriman and Wrenn always goes for the lead. I have been watching races there for a long time and never remember being in front having such an advantage. I know you can control the fractions, but I remember when coming from the back or front made no difference.
