No way do I think Relaxed Gesture is better than EC, but on that particular day EC had a perfct trip with no excuses. Horses like that have a huge advantage over horses like Relaxed Gesture who came from way behind to only lose by a head bob to Cacique.

Makes you wonder that sometimes its just who feels better on which day and which turn it is today.

...and Cacique had a perfect trip in the UN and EC ran by him like he was standing still.
