What a race. Good start to the championships!!
Nice pick but was all the best. Man of Iron had a dream trip. You can argue that homeister made a premature move and shifted outwards causing her to run more distance than she needed to. To her credit, she did outsmart dettori in that race but Man of Iron took advantage of the inside and stole it.

Glad that you still won some money!!

She wasn't happy in the post-race interview. Jeannie Edwards said she did what she wanted, but just got beat, and even muttered "a few explicatives".

Murtagh did right staying on the rail. If he comes out with Man Of Iron, it's Cloudy's Knight all the way.

Don't think I'm gonna play much more today, if at all. Had to travel the past 3 days (when I shoulda been preparing for BC), but all is good. Looking forward to tommorrow.

Good luck to you the rest of the day!

Nice call on Tapitsfly!!!

Biofuel's rodeo-like stretch drive really stings.

The horse looked real good coming down the stretch and was almost certain that she would win it.

Zilva had a dream run until the stretch. Then she had absolutely nowhere to run when it was time to go.

yeah, she was worried about that favorite (mastery) and man of iron snuck by inside, which was how horses won most of the day. rosemary cost me the double with that ride. cloudys knight was my horse today but tapitsfly made my day anyway. midday and pure clan was a nice exacta. but if she wins that marathon, i would of cleaned up and had a great day, instead it was only good. now i can fire away today!!
