I'm not saying Archipenko had a bad trip, and perhaps he was abit unlucky. But I thought he got out in time if he was head and shoulders the best horse in the field to get up. Yes Spirit One got a great trip and that is part of racing making your luck. He made his own luck and he was running down the lane, any other horse I think Archipenko would have nailed at the wire. I get the sense from reading here all Spirit One did was inherit a favorable situation and just got lucky, I think the horse deserves abit more credit than that.
