Smith already said it.

Smith needed a few strides to swing Zenyatta to the outside. Smith was able to get Zenyatta out and into the clear at the three-sixteenths pole. But he said the roar from the 72,739 - the majority of whom wanted to see Zenyatta win - distracted her briefly.

"The crowd was roaring so hard she kind of pricked her ears and looked over at them", Smith said

And the rest of the field were deaf?

They need to come up with a better one than that. How about a bit of credit to the winner from the connections?

she obviously has remarkably keen hearing compared to the other horses. they had cotton in there, mrs moss was shushing everyone. too bad fans did something unusual and showed their appreciation by being loud. the nerve.
yeah, it's the fans fault she lost.
