No kidding Freddy.

It wasn't that she devloped - it was how much she developed, how unexpected the development was, how incredibly rare her form is, and how she ended by collapsing with fractures in both ankles while galloping out well after the wire.

I'm hardly an industry guy.

There is no stand to make. Something happened in four weeks time that improved Eight Belles in a dramatic way. When you look at the way she went out - it makes the form reversal impossible to ignore.

That's all.
