I think it's Sutra, hands down. I seriously have never witnessed a worse race in person, ever. The field was awful and they ran WORSE than awful.

The reason I used "colt" in my topic was because I actually assumed everyone would go with Sutra if I just said horse. Yes, Sutra was awful.

God bless his soul, but what about A Huevo? He won the DeFrancis IIRC.

A Huevo could run - he won a Grade 1 stake sprinting (I believe with a good figure) late in the season at age 7, and had only had single digit starts in his career prior.

I could see him being on the list of most fragile Grade 1 winners ever - but he could flat out run.

Is that Jilbab?

If so, I don't think she was all that bad. I'd have to see her PP's again though.

Huh? A Huevo was very good when right..

What about Arcangues? Can't recall if he did anything besides the BCC win.

I think a bad back was his undoing. If I remotely remember correctly.
