Yesterday confirmed she can't run a step on it, as once again she flopped on itand never put in a real run.
Kellys Landing has made a career out of miraculous recovery from suspect races to big races.

Watch the Spinster over again before you say that Lemons never put in a real run or "flopped". Guidry occasionally will let a horse get too far behind (speak from first hand experience). She was running at the end despite being hopelessly behind at the 1/4 pole and would have been 2nd in 2 more jumps. It is her style and when she wins like the Oaks it looks impressive but more often you get results like yesterday.
