It was back to the grass for Temperature, a horse that Riggins Racing spent $375.000 on early in the year and turned in decent results, but the expectations were likely higher. She had been running well on the tturf, but the trainer took a couple cracks at the main track, and the results were similar: good, but not great.

Nothing Indecisive About Categorical Maybe’s Bold Ruler Win
Back in August, Categorical Maybe struggled in the slop at SAR in the Jerkens Memorial, but could we blame that result only on the rain? He was on good form going into the race, and had a solid outing in an optional claimer at PRX.
