Haynesfield had nothing to prove when he beat Blame who was undefeated this year by daylight in a slightly less important recent fall classic race either .
And didn't .
" Desparately " beating Rinterval is apropo of nothing if " desparate " is a matter of opinion .
Same logic applies to thrashing a horse that finished third by 10 when you finish second . And blatting on about it .
With that logic, thrashing Qr by 29 should mean something. Not to me .
Blame ran a good race with a nice trip .
The race was a thriller as no one can deny.
Without Zenyatta in it , it would not have been .
And no she didn't get a great trip .
And no she needs no excuses .
There was a huge sigh of relief from many when her head wasn't in front at the wire .
Hence the thread title in all its cleverness .
