Monday morning quarterbacking.
I'm sure very many believed he would lose the race. It's a long race. Smarty Jones and Real Quiet weren't that long ago were they?

Secretariat and Mine That Bird are not the same species. Without Monday morning quarterbacking, these boards would not be in existence. What else is there to question in this race?? Everyone harped about the reason for Mine That Bird's huge improvement in the TC races was saving his move. The excuse in the Sunland races for the horse was Lambert rushed him way too early. Woolley has gone on and on and on on the fact that the horse runs 3 furlongs. It seemed pretty obvious the same thing happened yesterday. It seems a pretty obvious thing to discuss.
