WOW! That was an amazing performance.

Scav · #2 06-21-2009, 05:31 PM

What track?

Gauchos0522 · #3 06-21-2009, 05:34 PM

Belmont...finished last of 4 in another bad run by a Godolphin returnee

eajinabi · #4 06-21-2009, 05:35 PM

Belmont Park. That performance was mind blowing. Watch out Zenyatta.

I thought you were serious and was expecting some monster 15 length win

Travis Stone · #6 06-21-2009, 05:38 PM

She looked like she was slipping and sliding the whole time... right off the turn her back legs kinda come out from behind her a bit.

Scav · #7 06-21-2009, 05:38 PM

Isn't it really sloppy there today?

NTamm1215 · #8 06-21-2009, 05:43 PM

She looked terrible, almost as bad as Music Note last week. Not a good time to be Rick Mettee.

To me, her performance is a toss if the track was as bad as I think I saw, I didn't pay attention at all to NY today.....

Isn't this her first start off the layoff also?

It was her first start off the layoff. He had a hard time getting her to settle. When he finally did, it was time to ask for run and at that point she didnt have anything.

Did any of you think it odd that she was entered in a listed stake to begin with?

She's a Grade I winner on a sloppy track and the field she was facing was absolutely abysmal. The track is certainly going to be used as an excuse but this is now the 2nd week in a row very consistent fillies looked terrible for Godolphin. The management of the horses needs to be questioned a bit.

I didn't know the sloppy track part because I didn't look at anything in NY today so I completely agree with you....Given she has run well over it before, she should have shown something

I know...thanks Coco Belle!!

This mare ran down multiple G1 winner Ginger Punch on a wet track at Belmont last fall. Today she looked dreadful. I know that not every "wet" track is the same but she sure didn't look like the horse we saw last summer and fall.

blackthroatedwind · #16 06-21-2009, 07:27 PM

She ran last behind three horses that would have trouble winning a competitive 50K claimer, on a track that she beat the reigning Eclipse winner over last Fall, and people are making excuses?

I look forward to her beating me in the future.....as I wouldn't bet a penny on her wherever she may show up next. Today was a horrendous performance.

blackthroatedwind · #17 06-21-2009, 07:28 PM

However, is it so hard for her named to be spelled correctly?

the_fat_man · #18 06-21-2009, 07:33 PM

With all the good racing out there today, only on DT would all the NYRA faithful be out in force commenting on a race over a sloppy track. Who cares? The racing there is UGLY.

Hard to believe so many of you are still day to dayers. Damn, you'd think this was 1976 and there were no other options.

Someone drop me a note when real racing resumes out there. (Which just might be never.)

Gander · #19 06-21-2009, 07:38 PM

Thought the exacta came back a bit short for beating Cocoa Beach.
$58 for $2??!! Somebody bet out on that number. And very convenient how Ramon doesnt try a lick to run 3rd. Thought he could have easily been 3rd if he wanted to.

It was a four-horse race and the 2nd choice ran second. Yeah, someone really went nuts playing that combination in a race that featured two 7 dollar exactas and a $5.

You're also wrong about Dominguez not trying. She was lugging in through the stretch and he was riding her hard and with the whip to the wire. Accuse Dominguez of anything but the guy gives 110% every time.
