Grand Rapport was a scratch at the gate- jock may have not liked the way this one was warming up.
2 here today: Gilligan!http://www.equibase.com/static/entry/GG011014USA-EQB.html#RACE7 Have mixed feelings about seeing him run- was on the vet's list after last race, and claim was voided. Returns up north, and would seem to be a legit shot on paper- I wont breathe until this one crosses the line- please Mr. Baze, take care of him.55 14-7-7 $249,093 Proud Imagehttp://www.equibase.com/static/entry/OP011014USA-EQB.html#RACE4 Returns to the track where this one broke the maiden first time out of the box, first race off the claim. 7 3-0-0 $35,736
Good luck to our runners today, and come home safe

Gilligan lost a heartbreaker, 2nd on the line, bad side of the nod. Looked good, wraps all the way around, I still worry about him- but gutsy effort as always. http://www.equibase.com/static/chart/pdf/GG011014USA7.pdf Proud Image was 4th, back by only 3- so a good effort.
1/11 Grand Row was a scratch Private Bounty was 7th- chart says that he "checked sharply"- and probably cost him a better placing. He is a big boy and it takes him a bit to get going.
