Also interesting to hear Victor say he felt the saddle slip right out of the gate. What a performance by both him and CC.
Yeah..VE said the wire couldn't get there fast enough actually pressed earlier than he wanted at the top of the stretch. Check out the finish line photos and the girth and extremely far back. I read some article that VE actually jumped off Chrome after the gallop out and adjusted the saddle for the ride back to the winner's circle.
