Ken anticipated Greenshoe going by Forbidden Trade and honestly believed it did. One thing I am always told in sports announcing is to call what is happening... not what I think is happening or should be happening.
Sears drives like he doesn’t care about winning which is not good good for our $$$ if you’re a Sears bettor. Watch him at yonkers nightly and you’ll see he’s totally disinterested.
Sears has won how many Hambos? Three, I think. Look, Greenshoe was rough at the gate and getting into the first turn, so he was in the weeds in that heat. He looked like he might roll by everyone anyway, till he hung late; second heat fatigue caught up with him. Fast, but a tough drive.
Watch again. I think Sears assumed Greenshoe would roll right by everyone; then he started to hang about a furlong out. Brian was working on him in that last furlong but the tank was empty.
