Default Chrome - Best horse in America???

How about best horse in the world? I changed my picks last minute going with my filly-mare fixation and thought Beholder could take him, as good as she is. AHHH OK, I understand as good as she is, he's much the better. WOW!!! Chrome getting better with age. And as good as Songbird is, no match!!! It would be her first loss to take him on or likely even Beholder. But the Songbird-Beholder match we hope will come true.

Well you go with your brain sometime and then other times your heart, this time my heart did not come through. NO biggie, it's only a cyber game . . . correct?!

Chrome was and is amazing and he didn't really have to go that fast and wasn't even tested either. Best horse in America???

It was a very exciting weekend of racing overall. I thought the quote from Stevens was on point, "But Victor was playing with us. I don't think he really let him run. That's scary to think about."

Kudos to Beholder, she ran her heart out and was indeed beautiful to behold. I love that mare.
