BUT todays race is the point, and if gomez let her go she was gone, might have won for fun, he fought with her, choked her and she came up empty, because of him

Dont you think that if she is not able to run uncontested 1/2 miles in 48 and win, she pretty much is not going to be a factor in the important races? Dont you think that this was the strategy considering that the KY Oaks is the probable goal? You can blame Gomez all you want but she simply was outrun by a better horse today. This isnt like she went in 50. She stole the 1st quarter in 24.2 and then proceeded to run unchallenged throughout. Sometimes you guys forget that a horses campaign is not a series of isolated races, they are all relative to each other. I'm not convinced that she is better than the other filly, especially at the FG and at the distance.
