I watched that race live.  Dexter’s horse trotted the mile in 150:3

He is at a little farm in northeast Ohio. With not a lot of horses.

Figured he’d have a couple of two yr old racing by now

I visited Monmouth Park today.  I always sit on the second floor of the grandstand.  Today while getting off the escalator, I noticed approximately twenty pails, buckets and garbage cans spread out across the entire floor to catch the rain drops falling from the holes in the ceiling.  I couldn't believe how badly deteriorating the place has become with no money being put into upkeep.  The racing consisted of unbettable 3-4 horse fields with little money to be made.  If anyone remembers Monmouth from the 1980s or 90s, it is nothing like it today.

Next year the subsidy will drop from $10 million to 2.5 million for both Monmouth and the Big M.  That should about finish Monmouth Park for good.

i am going to assume that getreal is not attempting to be a professional driver that people actually wager their money on expecting some level   of competence
lets be honest, the kid got schooled and it looked bad
when you have the best horse you need to be aggressive and decisive, he was fine not going immediately to the front, however when he pulled to the front he was indecisive
dexter sensed weakness and made him pay
