I thought Forrest Code was a play against yesterday.She was given a classic J.V. trip by sitting just off of a tepid pace at Belmont,and was predictably full of run in the stretch.I thought that she would get a similar trip,but that the pace would be quick enough that she would get tagged late by one other horse.Well,what did we see instead? We saw the one flaw of Gomez show up once again.He is vulnerable to getting inside chalk stuck behind(and inside of) horses(Happy ticket,C.Q.,TM Bling,Sigfreto etc.,)and so instead of sitting just off horses on the outside(which he could of done,because only 2 others were in that front pack) he gunned for the lead from the inside.He basically smoked her up with Patrick's horse.However,she remarkably held on well,and only got passed for the win late in the race.If this filly can get the trip(just off the smoke) next time,I don't think these horses can beat her.
