Kent just said that he just didn't have any horse left at the turn for home. No problems with the leg, just that the horse just didn't have it today.

Coa made Brown go so wide on the backstretch.
Not that it was the excuse. He clearly knew who
he was going to push out.

That is the most painful loss anyone will ever suffer. Couldn't have happened to a nicer group of people.

I'll bet the Casino Drive folks are devastated again after seeing today's race.

I know, It didn't help but that is not why he lost. but this was the first time that encountered a little trouble. He looked very uncomfortable out of the gate.

I've been watching racing since my sister and I beat each other up over Easy Goer and Sunday Silence. It feels strange to me to feel glad that Big Brown lost but in this day and age, I was happier watching Evening Attire finish second yesterday.
