I know what you're saying, and if this was like every other sport, yeah... but Rocco Mediate is a good not great golfer, and he had Tiger on the ropes, yet Tiger won. Same thing today.

Just take a break for a few hours and let reality set in.

Smith's dream horse. No need to worry about going 9 wide in a six horse field.

Counted 10 cracks of the whip by Smith, for whatever that is worth (probably absolutely nothing).

Looked like she didn't put her head down and really start running until he cracked her a few times.

I'll never root for Zenyatta. Her fans and TVG are unbearable. I wanted to reach through the television and taze Rudolph for calling her "The Queen"

I'll agree with tazing Rudolph, add Simon Bray to that list. Schrupp's comediness is starting to grow on me a little, although his homer TVG is God stuff makes me turn the channel

I can think of at least a couple DTers who would probably volunteer to help him out with that.

He is an embarassment. Worse than running the damn catheter commercials on there.

Oh I know... the pace was solid, the race setup, St. Trinian puts the race away, and laid down in the final few strides, but none-the-less Zenyatta was beat at the 16th pole, but dug-in.

She ran as good as a juiced to the gills, grade 2 polytrack mare can. Kind of reminds me of Shifty Shiek almost beating Slew o Gold.
