As embarrassed as Quality Road not being able to bring home the Whitney afte a 48 and change half?

Let's see, the 2009 Derby winner up the track. The winner of the Suburban, up the track (please spare me the argument. He beat the M/L Derby fave) Musket Man? Musket Man = Jaques Who.

It's Blame vs. Zenyatta closing as evening falls at the Downs.

There's a huge difference in attempting to hold off Blame and attempting to run down Rinterval...

QR is placed in spots he can lose. Zenyatta is placed in spots where she would be embarrassed to lose.

He was 2/5 in the M/L!!!!! All of a sudden Blame is Kelso, Forego rolled into one.

Trust me, off those slow fractions, it was embarrasing for Quality road to lose.
Must have been the braid.

So Rinterval and Blame are basically equals? Quality Road looked very flat today, but come on.

This is further proof that you can be literally brain dead and still be a photographer.

The variant for that figure was split - and that number was inflated significantly to get to 94 because of the slow pace.
