The first Derby I ever watched was 1992 and the programming was all Arazi-this Arazi-that. I don't think they even mentioned another horse so I was all confused how he could possibly loose.

To this day, I'm still convinced that Arazi didn't lose. His connections failed him but he didn't lose. I always thought that was a pretty weak argument on my behalf.........until 2010.......when I learned that you really do win when you lose.

I am also convinced of one of two things. Either his trainer sabotaged Arazi to prove a point, or Arazi had huge soundness issues and the trainer really was trying to protect the horse. I have no way of knowing which is the case, but being the cynic that I am.... |
