Definitely not and it's not like you would know what you were looking at anyway, but the ride was sh.it. Not Ryan Curatolo in the last at Belmont bad, but still bad.

I may not know what I'm looking at but commenting on Kathmanblu's ride is like commenting on the ride given by Rick's Natural Star' in the Breeders Cup Turf. It's totally irrelevant.

She really did get a horrible ride there. Otherwise she would have been beat by only 30 lengths.

Her trainer begged you not to run her.

I thought so. They both had about the same chance in their respective races.

I'm confused.

Who did Rick's Natural Star ride in the BC Turf?

You're right. I'm surprised it took somebody this long to notice.

She was never really involved and I think just missed 3rd.

Since Lezcano can't be blamed for this, I wonder who will get it.

Saw the replay. He did go 3 wide on the first turn. That was difference of losing the race by 20 lengths. He could have easily lost by only 18 if he had saved some ground
