I would also have made the 8 a contender in the race. Although the last line is a 0 race it came after a 49 day lay off and at what appears to have been at a level above todays race.That makes 2 excuses for me to excuse the last and keep the horse. This is in no way implying that the horse would have been a bet when all was said and done. We must also remember that horses are not machines and even the best will throw a clunker in with no apparent excuse. This is why Doc went to the best of the last 3 over riding the older last line except for valid reason practice.
