4:15 - Well, Shared Account obviously wasn't quite ready to run under the circumstances today, as the Gallorette Handicap went to No Explaining in sharp fashion. The winner showed a terrific turn of foot entering the homestretch and held off late runs on both sides to score her first stakes victory.
Next up is the William Donald Schaefer Memorial Stakes, won last year by eventual Breeders' Cup Classic (gr. I) winner Blame. Coincidentally, this year's Schaefer favorite, Apart, is trained by Blame's trainer.
I like Apart to win (like most everyone, he's currently 6-5) but I also like Colizeo and Icabad Crane for second and third.
The track has seemed to be favoring closers, although speed hasn't been doing all that badly.
