Horse in the 10th race at Del Mar finished a distant 11th.

As for the bum who gave the scare at Suffolk -- he got a textbook perfect trip. He was a clear 3rd early off of two breakaway speed duelers in a short field.




A lot of the greatest upsets in history happened with similar scenarios.

I did a thread about it a few years ago -- and here are some of the pictures I posted in the old thread:

* Jim Dandy won the Travers by 8 lengths at "100/1" in a 4-horse field... one bookmaker who offered 500/1 against him at Saratoga tried to jump a fence and runaway and escape after he won.




* Dare And Go stalks a 3-way pace battle between three wildly superior horses from a clear 4th...he blows Cigar and Siphon away in the stretch.



* This wasn't a famous upset -- but Malibu Moonshine paid $31.60 and won by an easy 5 lengths in a 4-horse field.




390 down, only 610 more to go.

A few others from the thread:

* The impressiveness of this win by El Gato Malo was historically huge. David Flores was the jockey of both El Gato Malo and Zenyatta ...






After this impressive win, Flores took off of undefeated Zenyatta to ride El Gato Malo on the same day in the Santa Anita Derby.

El Gato Malo finished 5th as the favorite in the SA Derby -- and Flores never got to ride his mount Zenyatta again.
