Do you at least acknowledge Ginger threw her head going into the first turn? That she seemed uncomfortable behind horses?
Have you watched the head on? I think if you do you’ll see the 4 was stopping and Irad slipped into the spot where she was. It was actually a great ride by Irad. From 3 wide on 1st turn and backstretch to pocket trip and moved at just the right time. Obviously his filly was the goods but his ride made the difference.
There are times when sometimes it can seem like there are games. A few years ago in the Beldame Irad moved out of the way as he was tiring so Elate could get through. That was a very bad look. This wasn’t one of those times IMO.
