Yes with a better one she surely would have won.

Definitely not and it's not like you would know what you were looking at anyway, but the ride was sh.it. Not Ryan Curatolo in the last at Belmont bad, but still bad.

She was never really involved and I think just missed 3rd.

Since Lezcano can't be blamed for this, I wonder who will get it.

Saw the replay. He did go 3 wide on the first turn. That was difference of losing the race by 20 lengths. He could have easily lost by only 18 if he had saved some ground

Thanks. Certainly not the closing kick we are used to seeing from Winter Memories, but then again, facing better horses than she has been will cause a lot of that.

I may not know what I'm looking at but commenting on Kathmanblu's ride is like commenting on the ride given by Rick's Natural Star' in the Breeders Cup Turf. It's totally irrelevant.

Or Indy Five Hundred in the Flower Bowl?

She really did get a horrible ride there. Otherwise she would have been beat by only 30 lengths.

Sweet analogy.

I thought so. They both had about the same chance in their respective races.

Her trainer begged you not to run her.

I'm confused.

Who did Rick's Natural Star ride in the BC Turf?
