Hollywood - Race 8
#4 Led Advantage (4/1 ml)
Maiden-claiming filly just had a nightmare trip last time out, hopping at the break to be off dead last early, then was checked in traffic not once but twice in early backstretch before launching a sharp prolonged rally that brought her into contention turning for home, where upon she was forced to alter course pretty sharply to the inside (losing some momentum) by an errant horse who veered outward in front of her, then was forced to check AGAIN when that same horse came veering back into her path a second time. Just insane. And after all this she ended up beaten less than a length at the wire. Also worth mentioning that was her first start around two turns, and she figures to be better-conditioned for today's subsequent try. Expecting a solid effort here.
HRT record:
65 for 230 (28%)
$558.40 mutuels ($8.59 avg)

Led Advantage blew the start again btw, breaking in sharply and bumping hard with the horse to her inside. Had to come from way out of it again. Won't be a maiden for long.
Big double digit winner and me and the Cat give you all a nice 80.00 exacta.
Merry Christams
