Did anyone see this? 2-year-old maidens going two turns on the grass.

I didn't but got this from the chart footnotes --  GOOD OFFENSE chased the pace early, swung into the six path in the far turn, made a bid down the lane, edged past the leader but shied from the photo finish light then ducked out and lost the rider right before the wire.

Jesus Castanon was the jockey that got dumped. Horse went off at 7-1.

As a result, the 33-1 shot that would have/should have been second ended up paying $69.00 to win and triggered a $1,327.40 exacta with a 20-1 shot. The tri, completed by another 7-1 shot, paid $20,471.80 for $2 and a 34-1 shot completed the super, which returned $59.927.30 for a buck (actually, only $46,284 in the super pool, so any winners had it only in dime or 50-cent increments).

If you cashed on any of this, you don't ever have the right to complain about a bad beat again. EVER!!
