I think she's THE story of this race if you ask me...Big Brown, more or less, did what was expected of him, she ran lights out, surprised a lot of people (myself included). So sad that she went down, totally dampened my day.
Obviously Big Brown seems to be something special and as the focus to him working toward a possible Triple Crown, the spotlight will fade off Eight Belles, and what happened, which is unfortunate, because she was magical today. It sucks how one in one flash, you see the brilliance and majesty and then in another you see the unfortunate.
