What happened to the favorites, 2/21/15?

It was a busy day with 6 graded stakes at GP including the Fountain oaf Youth and 4 at Fg including the Risen Star #44. GP R4. Rampart Saks. Msw-III/8F, D. #2 Wedding Toast from PP1 was the odds on fav. There was a lot of bumping at incl. though officially "good for all" (no head on), but got away well and engaged in 3-way duel for the lead to the turn. Fought all the way down the stretch also in a 3-way go to hold on for 3rd ($2.40). the 2nd fav House Rules (3/1)stalked the duelers, moved up on the turn and was too strong. The #5 got checked badly by the 1/8th pole 9no head on). #45. GP R5. The Very One #46. GP R6, GP Sprint; 4up-III/6.5F, D. #5Mean Season and #8 Weekend Hideaway both went off about 7/4 and both finished off the borad. It was a weird kind of race. Both #5 & 8 missed the start! #5 caught up fast but then was gone at the turn. #8 was out back and wide and didn't really figure ("failed to menace"). #2 C. Zee got out fast and dueled the first 1/4, but then eased back to mid field on the rail, went around the tiring #5 on the turn then back to the rail, then yanked out around the leader at the 1/8th pole and ran out the final 100m hard. #5 walked in and may have been injured. The winner was 6/1 #2.
