While Samsincharge made the lead, it wasn't easy as she was pumped fairly hard to get to the front before the first turn. The 1 and the 4 then turned it on and passed her. The jockey relaxed and decided not to go with them: Would you've prefered that he pushed to maintain the lead?
She then sat 3rd inside until midturn and couldn't stay with the top 4.

The jockey didn't really ask her from early stretch to the wire.

Seems to me, if she went, she definitely loses and Daytime Promise (very nice, sharp, wide but PREMATURE move on the turn) wins. So she sits a decent trip and still loses. Which kind of leads me to conclude that she wasn't much today.
