Maybe because of it being a Grade I he got somewhat nervous. I think there is a reason guys like Gomez,Prado,Alan Garcia, etc get/win Grade I mounts/wins. They have proven themselves in the big races. Rosario hasn't....yet.

Some of the replies on here are borderline insane. People are acting like CE is some monster horse. Newsflash...he isnt. One brainiac said CE is 20 lengths better than Obrigado. I guess some people on here just want to overlook when they met in Jan when CE won, but not by much.

The best one though is that Obrigado lost not because of the trip...but because he was 22-1. That is hall of fame material.
Actually the quote was On class, Champs is 20 lengths better than Obrigado. Class is the operative word in the sentence. Now, there is a little hyperbole in the sentence obviously as 20 lengths is a pretty arbritrary number.

I would say a quick look at the pps would support that contention. Now, if you want to continue to throw insults, I can go there as well. Surely you can make your point without the garbage.
