Race 5--
Guess our choice(2nd fave-- too bad it didn't get favored...if we were going to lose, might as well take more contestant choices down in flames with us) didn't take to the weeds....yes, it shouldn't've fought for the lead, but still-- it quit like a pig. All in all, we wouldn't change our pick -- even after the fact: no way would we bet a Luis Rivera mount with YOUR money-- to boot it was the fave(who also carried the votes of all scratched horses).
Race 8--
Great job by Castro on our choice to not let the front get away too much from him...he's been riding so well... Although we were actually hoping our horse would fall down, because it was the posttime fave(as the scratched horses here had garnered heavy backing). Too bad Bravo mount, who imploded, didn't become 1st favorite-- instead of just 2nd...
Race 9--
Finally a fave implodes, along WITH votes of heavily-backed scratched horses. Our choice was not too far back early, then suddenly backed up midway thru the backstretch.
Don't think too many folks got eliminated today-- no more than 300 is our guess...
