A flat-out rejection (Clyde Frazier &#038; Keith Hernandez: &ldquo;REEEEE-JEC-ted!&rdquo;) in the opener at the Mountain last night. <\/p>\n<p>Why would you put up the big show-pool investment in a five-furlong turf race, for crying out loud? Brave!<\/p>\n<p>Then the V6 Betting Line said, Yeah, this 7-10 fave, Blizzard Buddy Ben is the top on the Fair Odds pile, but at what price? How &rsquo;bout 4-1! With the second-choice coming in at 4&frac12;-1. Not much separation there!<\/p>\n<p>The Pace Graph and LifeLiner were competitive for the &rsquo;Blizzard, but not prohibitive. There were faster issues than the &rsquo;Blizzard on both measures.<\/p>\n<p>The &rsquo;Blizzard did OK early, had a rough trip but could not muster the proper response befitting an odds-on animal. The &rsquo;Blizzard was preempted by a flurry of late activity from the other runners.<\/p>\n<p>Your very own &ldquo;Nocturnal Submission&rdquo; feature touted some poor horsey named General Perfect, breaking from the far outside in the short race. Tough. General Perfect was 10-1 on the morning line and 29-1 in real life. The &rsquo;General ran to his 72-76-91 LifeLiner array, closing well enough to hit third.<\/p>\n<p>Meantime, the &rsquo;Blizzard, 7-10 on the toteboard, was not even fourth &mdash; on this evening, he turned in fifth. The show payoffs were elevated.<\/p>\n<p>The winner paid $13 to win, $6.40 to place and $11 to show; the runner-up paid $5.60 and $6.<\/p>\n<p>And the top-touted General Perfect paid $38.40 to show.
