It was just visually stunning to me.

Broke last early, passed all but the front pair from way back with just about no urging, accelerated up the rail when a hole opened, and won going away under a hand ride.

I wouldn't have ever once considered calling that a "dream run." Had he been in that pocket spot, 3rd behind the top pair the whole way, then yea. But he gave the leaders 8-10 lengths and drew even with them without really being asked in a matter of 3/16 of a mile, and won easily on a track that's by and large, a speed/presser-favoring one.

I get that it wasn't the toughest bunch, and that it was at Meadowlands, but have you never seen a race where you watch a horse do something that surprises you in how easily he/she does it, and you just say "wow?"

.....i actually said that with zenyatta maiden win
