She was unlucky in that she was stopped when she was starting to make her run but the winner absolutely galloped. I’m not a “that horse won in a hand ride so they could run faster if asked” guy but the winner was never asked at all. I don’t think anyone was beating her yesterday.
How about the trip the 5 had? May she had no run but Johnny was never able to get her out from behind the tiring pacesetter
