We saw McCraken run a track record in the Tampa Bad Derby, but maybe Tapwrit was just as good. Now the big question is how will they do in their next race. It’s really all about the progression!
McCraken took it easy early, swung out to make his move coming out of the turn and finished very nicely. While Tapwrit showed early interest and ran some into the lively early pace, then saved ground the balance of the way, needed to wait off heels and move off the rail for some racing room and finished very well, to be clearly matching with McCraken.
They both have their own form cycles and we will have to see how each reacts to this effort, which was a track record performance. I will have speed figs on Wednesday on Ralph Siroco’s Race Day Las Vegas… so tune in on Wednesday morning…
All updates will be done on Sunday…
