I've posed this before: 'how the **** does he have the nerve to face the connections after that ride"?
Disagree- WaW ran her race, and wasn't good enough. She ran well, Johnny V maybe moved a little early but Forever Together would have mowed her down either way- Leparoux really never asked her for her best. Whether she was better than Sealy Hill is certainly debatable, although the run Sealy Hill put in when clear was impressive.

The pace was moderate but it was destructive because it was pretty contested. Then again, the Euro shipper was coming out of a frontrunning mile race so it's no real shocker she packed it in at the quarter pole...
