That's true. I follow your lead and watch as few replays as possible these days. However, if you watch the headon, you'll realize that she wins FOR FUN if she has room. Which makes her effort all the more impressive. So, we can 'settle' for a horse running 'well' in spite of the setup -- certainly nothing to laugh at. Or, we can see it as a horse that would've crushed the field in spite of the setup.
And seeing that she had 'trouble', I'm sure all the TROUBLE TRIP handicappers might want in on this as well.

Something for everyone.
