Garcia didn't ease anything - he was out of horse in the last furlong.

7fs is a very tough distance when you have to run hard the whole way.

Not working him at all? He was in a full drive the entire length of the stretch. He had no horse left at all.

You're not supposed to win a 7f race by running the first 6f in 107:30.

ive watched the race three times his tongue was not draggin
there is gas left in this horse;s tank martin was not urging the riens at all at the end
we will have to see next time when he goes longer
i believe garcia had the wire and sway measured
he has worked this horse knows the track and this was not his first rodeo

You're fooling yourself. Garcia had him in a full drive the entire length of the stretch and he was staggering in the final 1/8th.

I don't think the time is right at all. I find it hard to believe they got the second quarter in 21 and 2 and the third in 23 and 4. Something isn't right.
