The Blame
1 1/8 Mile Dirt Stake Purse $125.000 Open 4 Year Olds And Up.

1st Rotten Apple Nakamura Stables Court J K

A Nak one two in this, not a bad result when you consider this one’s last run was in a claimer. Settling off the pace he had too much toe at the end coming home by three quarters of a length. The five year old was on song today and relished this trip.

2nd Kick Rocks Nakamura Stables Cohen D

Another from the same stable that ran in a claimer in his last start he went to the lead only to hand up to his stable mate in the last furlong. It was strange that this one had an electric work last time but started at much longer odds than his stable companion but that may have had something to do with coming out of a six furlong claimer last time.

3rd High Fives High Voltage Bridgmohan S X

Stalked the lead and kept on gamely for third but never really looked like beating the winner who was strong at the end. Another consistent effort and a lot of hard work for a profit of 6 bucks.

4th Southern Attitude Arindel Talamo J

Another fair effort since being bought at auction, however he looked a bit one paced at the end and has yet to live up to the promise he showed with his previous stable.
