I went with Art Collector for the win. I saw no reason to believe the filly could turn the tables on him from their last meeting. But I have to say that I'm extremely happy that she won. Anyone that knows me knows i favor the bold move and going outside of the box and love to see those rewarded when they do so. Congrats to the Swiss Skydiver team.

I felt the same way. And there's the added bonus that with a filly, there's a much better chance that we'll get to see them compete for another couple of years.
