Agreed. I told my daughter that I thought Secret Oath ran really well and maybe she would have finished better if she didn’t get pushed around early on.
She was sad but she’s still excited about the Kentucky Derby and has been working on learning the words to My Old Kentucky Home, which of course made my mom cry when she sang it to her (my dad and maternal grandfather both loved horse racing but have since passed.)
I’ll have to show her the 1988 Derby. She’ll like that.
