Great race by both, no disgrace winning it or finishing 2nd, I keep hearing this was a brutal field but in all due respect this was one of the best dirt fields in the past 2 years.
she didn't get much kick back, she wasn't close enough to experience it for much of the race.

a couple of horses were decent, but some of them were distance limited. the bulk of the field sucked.

There is more kickback on dirt. I know, neither are great...I remember that quote of yours succinctly.
