...Saturday, Rout's play was Unshaded, a 3-year-old who won a maiden special weight race Jan. 29 at Gulfstream and bumped up in class to this $36,000 allowance race. Rout was positively prescient in his analysis: "I like the way that No. 9 Unshaded broke his maiden over seven furlongs last time, and think that the extra three-sixteenths of a mile will suit him perfectly.

Case, who was raised in Hawaii and is partial to batik shirts, seems to have ditched his old look wherever Levin left his Gulfstream. Besuited and betied, Case is also clearly bewitched by a vision of a world where consumers are constantly connected to a web of entertainment and information. It's a world, he says, where cell phones, televisions, computers, cars, maybe even refrigerators, will all be tapped into a data network that...
