Ginger Punch.
 
That was a heck of a tough race.
Trapped, bumped, gutty, gutty lady.
That was a small field that trapped her
and roughed her up.

I know it was a bad field, but the track was difficult,
getting mud in the face and bumped around and still came
through. Good stuff.

Oh everything that could go wrong for GP did, and she still wins, great stuff.

Heavily agree. Nice race to watch.

Just as I was saying "no way," she and Bejarano got on it and made a way.

Yeah, and she only ran three seconds slower than Commentator.

Give me a break.

The b*tch about these posts is that sometimes it's hard to tell if there was intended humor.

I didn't watch the Commentator race, but I will note Ginger Punch seemed to be caught in a block and squeeze and block strategy.

But still won. It WAS a fun race to watch.

She was born at the right time.

A nice horse, no doubt, but she was certainly not very good today.

Yep, I understand.

Regardless, a fun race to watch as a racing fan.

But an even more fun race to listen to. Especially from a master announcer like Durkin. Isn't is nice how he always seems to emphasize the genuinely troubled trips. Man knows his ****.

ok, good, it was not my bias kicking in, I thought watching it was what a horrible bunch that she still won with that trip.

I find it amusing the other jocks got caught up riding her, instead of their own mounts.

How could she be good.
Had 5 horses working her over, puttin her in a bottle.
3 seconds slower than commentator who never had a horse got close enough to touch him.
Ridiculous to compare races that are so different.

A gang bang, in the parlance of our time.
