But even Day, the veteran jockey aboard the youthful colt, could not overcome a record-tying performance by the overwhelming favorite, Pyramid Peak.Pyramid Peak, a 4-year-old Mt. Livermore colt who ran in last year's Kentucky Derby, led at every call to win the scratch-marred 1 1/8 -mile Grade III handicap.

I worry about a related trend. We're so frantic to devour the Next Big Thing, or catch up on our book club pick, that we can scarcely be bothered with a book that challenges us with its style or subject matter.
