Cattlemens day 2

Some pretty rough runs in the Cattlemens 4yo yesterday. Misstakes a plenty by horses that normally would breeze through to the 2nd go. Matt Gaines Smart Lookin Hanna maybe most notably. They were going pretty good when the mare had a small miss that had her overshooting the cow in her next stop and Matt had to grab a rein and turn her. An automatic 60 as a result. A couple of similar runs by Futurity finalist Austin Rey, Fut.semifinalist RL Mojo Cat and the one I was keeping an x-tra eyball on, Fut.Non Pro Ltd finalist Bratz Cat.

Leading the pack is RL Chartier and Light Reys with a 219 trailed by Pete Branch on his recent Bonanza champ Kit Kat Sugar, 218.5. A bunch of nice runs followed the top two but I'm pulling extra for CR Smart Brow April & Boyd Rice, 216, who's back after the terrible trailer accident wich claimed Boyd's turnback horse Paints life in January.

After the 5/6 2nd go, 3 horses share top honours heading in to todays clean slate finals. George C Merada, Pounce and Boons A Dreaming all scored a combined 437.5 in the 2 gorounds.
