Watch it a few more times and then if nothing changes go see your optometrist. CQ was coming out of his fuc%$in skin on the backstretch. It was apparent that he was the one to beat. The blinks obviously focused him.

Here's what GG said:
"He was up in the bridle," said Garrett Gomez, who rode Circular Quay. "I was very surprised. I was happy, but at the same time, I wasn't liking where he was putting me between the five-eighths and the half-mile pole. I didn't want to let him go. I was hoping [Magna Graduate] would clear, then I was able to ease him out."
