I did not see any foul, did it happen at the gate?

(1,607 posts)3. Yes, it was....
....looking forward to her race today but probably won't get much of a price on her.

(38,425 posts)4. How did it come out?
I was totally into a baseball game and forgot to tune in.

(1,607 posts)5. She finished 2nd....
....she raced a little greenly. Here's what the chart said, " AMAPOLA showed speed
then tracked the pace, went around the turn
in the two path,made a bid at the five-sixteenths, floated four wide while
asked into the stretch, wandered out a path or two near the three-sixteenths,
battled with the winner under a right-handed whip in the final furlong and was
outfinished while clear for the place."
paid 3.20 and 2.40
