I don't know if it was so much the 2nd best route race as the worst ride of the year by Kent Desormeaux.

I still can't believe he actually let Invasor draw on even terms with Premium Tap at the head of the stretch without putting his mount under a drive. Instead, he kept looking under his left shoulder...presumably for a hopelessly beaten Discreet Cat. As if Invasor wasn't enough to handle...

The way Premium Tap remained on the bit down the lane suggests he might have given Invasor a fight had Kent D. tried to break the race open instead of waiting on competition.

I guess it still pales in comparison to the 2006 Kentucky Cup Classic, though...
