I spent some time in the paddock on Friday and Saturday and I've never seen better looking animals that don't run a lick than the Godolphon group.
Does anyone have any insight into that?

Don't look at me.

I'm staying out of all things Godolphin.

I dont know what the hell happened to their horses, not one ran a worthy race to even show. No excuses for a horse like Vineyard Haven and Gayego

I was particularly unimpressed with Girolamo, who didn't appear to run a step once the gate opened.

The day an A. P. Indy wins the Breeders Cup Sprint is the day hell freezes over. Girolamo will improve a gigantic margin if he comes back in a race like the Cigar Mile.

They look great because they are million dollar bloodlines. They run poorly because they put them in 2 races all year and expect to show up to win the Breeders Cup.

Had AP Assay stayed sound she could have won the BC Juvie filly race and the sprint.

Hey, what do you think about AP Assay?!

I was wondering why Girolamo wasnt in the Dirt Mile, and Gayego in the Sprint?

After billion of dollars later they have only managed one American classic and One BC classic

Bernardini in the Preakness, and it took a tragic incident for that to happen, then again we wont know either if had he was ok and that injury did not happen to Barbaro.

Invasor did run under Shadwell, and Bernardini under Darley Maroon, but they are all the same

Barbaro would have had to have run a career top to be competitive with Bernardini that day. That was his day, his breakout party.
