He is very talented, and is def. the horse to beat tomorrow. I will be betting him tomorrow, and I get the feeling him and Midshipman will go on to better careers then Vineyard Haven

Vineyard Haven did not look very good here, looks like Dettori knew what he was doing choosing Desert Party.

Ever seen a horse climbing before? That was what Vineyard Haven was doing all down the backstretch, lifting his knees up so high that he looked like a trotter breaking stride. Usually indicates the horse can't get traction on the surface. It's very tiring for the horse, so not surprisingly he flattens out late.

I thought it looked more like he was cross-firing.
