For what its worth Shes All Eltish was indeed the best filly in the race, but to blame Gomez for her defeat, is disingenuous at best and ignorant at worst.

Approaching the pole the filly spooked. She did not lug in as the chart indicates and she did not duck in as many track observers have stated. If you have ever been on a horse that spooked or even had one on the shank, you will be lucky to retain possession.

Gomez with a sterling piece of horsemanship kept this one from going over the rail. The thread starter and his posse of prattlers may have watched the race; but they didn't see it. BBB
