This race was remarkable not because Goldikova is clearly a special filly, but also because someone finally got a better trip than Kip Deville in a race where he cracked the trifecta.

So then if I'm reading u and Andy correctly, Whatsthescript is the horse to bet in the next meeting between the two. Again, while I understand how the odds may only be reflective of who won and who lost and not relative to their actual chances based on good trips for both, it's my contention that Goldikova is likely to continue to get better trips than Whatsthescript because of her tactical speed. Because of the later's running style, I'd be more inclined to believe that the next time they meet, she'd be more likely to get a better trip than him.
