T., I posted about that last night. I saw the race, and clearly Nicoles Dream was tons the best, but she did cut off the 3 and 4 causing then to pull up and check hard. I don't think it would have made a difference in the outcome of the race....maybe the 3 or 4 would have got up for the place instead of the 1, but who knows. Nicoles Dream won by open lengths. Im sure there were some pissed off people last night that had her singled...but...what can you do?
