Please watch the replay and tell me it wasn't an absolutely perfect trip.

Since when is saving ground a bad thing?

She sat in the pocket behind a very fast, crowded pace and angled out at the perfect time.

She was clearly the best horse and her acceleration was visually impressive (even though the wrong lead thing was ugly), but it's easy to look impressive when the horses behind you are basically running in place.

I wouldn't dispute that she's better than Luckin At Lucky, though.
