From espnuk

"Goldikova, who went off as the 6-5 favorite with her two pacesetting stablemates, Only Green and Saying, has always had the seven-furlong Prix de la Foret on Oct. 3 set as her final trial for a third consecutive Breeders' Cup Mile title. Clearly, however, she will want to avoid soft ground in the future as that sort of going takes the sting out of her vaunted acceleration."

They set her up nice, as she did all the drafting she'd want until she was ready to run in the stretch. Then she got RUN DOWN by a last mover. Now, that's irony.

Guess Princess not only needs to be escorted by windbreakers but she also needs to last move the field. Yeah, I realize she didn't like the going
and has run some nice races.
