Azeri wasn't a total lock on paper in that years Distaff ... and she was one of my first four or so throwouts in that years Classic.

She was basically beaten 10 with a very good trip at 15/1 odds in a race she probably should have been 50/1 in. As it turned out though - yeah - she probably wins that years Distaff by 2 or 3.

It was a classic case of Lukas overlooking the correct spot to shoot for the moon.
