With the bad start LGT was there comming for home and nothing. With the talent I was expecting he should have bloew by them. I just probably over estimated this horse. I didnt see any thing to make me think that this was a instance where LGT lost and under performed. If the bad start is the excuse then it exposes him to be less talented than I expected.

LEs Grand Trois broke his maiden at Belmont, so he's not a california horse, per say. I didn't like his race at all Saturday, despite the inside trip where he had to check a couple times, he had a chance to win and didn't.

And you're right, Headly isn't shipping magnificence. I think she's running in the 2nd week of May at Hollywood in a Grade III.

I don't know if anyone will agree, but I thought Les Grands Trois looked physically awkward the entire race- he definitely didn't show the same action as he did in his debut, and his head carriage seemed oddly high.

I think he had a fairly poor ride, but that being said, he didn't look good enough to win on that day anyway.
