The horse saved ground on a slow pace and had absolutely no answer for the much-the-best winner. Jesus with a 7-pound bug couldn't have made that horse run any better than she did.

You know what: stats will probably tell me that Contreras is a significantly better rider than Wilson or (last year) even Da Silva. But Emma is absolutely money in the lane and Da Silva is right behind her. And Contreras is always a defensive play for me. Lezcano looks real good styling with the best horse. But he can't be counted on when it means something. Just my opinion.
