Well, Visionaire certainly boosted Pyro's stock a bit with his Gotham win. Although on that track, and in those conditions, I don't see it as a definite test.

Texas Wildcatter was much the best but the pinhead on his back moved him early and wide around the turn and used him up.

That sucks, man. All I had was a $5 exacta with him and Roman Emperor. Still stinks when I see that kind of shiat, though.

Did anyone else watch Visionaire be taken totally out of his game, and come out of the clouds to get up...literally?

He didn't come out of the clouds. He caught a horse that was done due to a premature move.

Well, Visionaire was last throughout most of the race...

He's usually stays in the middle of the pack...not in last place.

Visionaire was moving before Texas Wildcatter, and he still caught him on his wrong lead. Visionaire would beat this group every time, especially if he got a little bit more favorable trip.

I mean, Visionaire was the best horse going into this race anyway, so he did what he should of done even in unfavorable circumstances.
