How frustrating

He did; Eddie D once said something to the effect like he had all he could do to hold on to Indy, his head was so low! Up until a few months ago, I still had the Blood Horse edition from his Belmont - I think Penny Chenery said that Indy reminded her of Secretariat in the way that they ran......not surprising, given that Indy's broodmare sire is Big Red.

I also thought that Teammate had a bad start, which didn't help her any - I assumed she was going to the lead. Maybe this helped her anyway, for the future, at least. If she can rate kindly, she'll win more races.

The older fillies aren't that great - Pine Island has a great shot. I'm not a fan of the filly, but I can not be unhappy about any Phipps horse winning.
