Yes, I agree. No way could I get myself to be that small like she did.

Wow. Amazing picture. Shocked that a photographer caught that very moment like that...

Undoubtedly the highlight of Chantal's stay was the Saratoga meet of 2005 where she actually rode well. I know I had her at huge numbers more than a few times, of course that was only after I had to convince myself that she was capable.

Stock Tip, World Series, and Square Dancing come to mind. It just seemed like she was never aggressive enough to be successful at Aqueduct and she never really got a feel for Belmont. I'm sure as a rider there are nuances about Belmont that you have to know, but Chantal certainly had enough time to figure it out.

Just my $.02.
