Funny how no one is bringing up that Marketing Mix got scratched a few hours earlier for the same thing. Her connections didn't want her running on the course the way it was. Just like Shug and she has won over a wet course as well.

These turf courses aren't all the same, so while they both might be soft or yielding, they could be a lot different.
Or that her owner tweeted immediately after the race: "We would have won."

I'm sure Dinny Phipps doesn't have a Twitter account, but I'll check to see if he had a similar feeling after the Woodford Reserve.
