Forgettable? This was a race that a 'normal' horse loses. There figured to be NO pace in the race and it turned out this way, as they went 2-1 around the track, with Crisp getting the perfect trip. But we knew going into the race that BL can run AGAINST the GRAIN. All the MONKEY had to do was get her a clear run in the stretch and she wins for fun. Instead he puts her inside and behind for 3/4 of the stretch run and manages to get out a few strides too late. This was a ride that was every bit as bad as the two efforts last year by Gomez on Ventura. This was a ride that the connections had every right to bury their boots deep into Bejarano's ass. That this piece of **** got this game filly beat this way is inexcusable.
On the other hand, there's a thread over at PA about how she's overrated.
So, as bad as the ride was, there are opinions about the race that are even worse.
