What happens? You lose by a nose?

She lost and I'm very disappointed, but I thought the sentiment by the "unbiased" was that she would be exposed in this race as a synthetic specialist which couldn't translate her grade I (restricted) form to dirt. Is that what happened?

If she ran 4th or last, that would be dissapointing, she ran a terrific race. Why the dissapointment? Courageous in defeat, that's the way champion horses run, she didn't suck it up like Quality Road did, she ran until she ran out of racetrack.

yes but my point is more that in alot of those wins she beat noone..she ran well ..but shes not as good as most of the horses that the press machine has said.. better than seattle slew , ect no way..
