Good for her, after that long arduous career.......
Living The Life has been retired and will not run in the Breeders' Cup F&M Sprint, according to trainer Gary Mandella.
this race is void of front runners
It's void of anything that would lead me to understand why they placed it so high in the race order "ranking"...
should have at least switched places with the turf sprint
1 Paola Queen Gustavo Delgado Javier Castellano 20-1
2 Haveyougoneaway Thomas Morley John Velazquez 3-1
3 Tara's Tango Jerry Hollendorfer Rafael Bejarano 8-1
4 Gomo Doug F. O'Neill Mario Gutierrez 20-1
5 Wonder Gal Leah Gyarmati Kendrick Carmouche 30-1
6 By the Moon Michelle Nevin Jose Ortiz 8-1
7 Gloryzapper Philip D'Amato Stewart Elliott 15-1
8 Carina Mia William I. Mott Julien Leparoux 7-2
9 Paulassilverlining Michelle Nevin Joe Talamo 10-1
10 Wavell Avenue Chad C. Brown Joel Rosario 6-1
11 Irish Jasper Chad C. Brown Irad Ortiz Jr. 10-1
12 Finest City Ian Kruljac Mike Smith 12-1
13 Spelling Again Brad Cox Luis Saez 20-1
It's probably Haveyougoneaway or the highway for me, but I might box her up with Finest City (who has some sneaky form under these conditions, but a poor record at this track) and Gloryzapper who is the "now" local horse. I have a mild opinion only here...
