I'm still trying to figure out if Fleet Indian was that brave, or if Balleto simply refuses to pass anyone a la Perfect Drift.
tell you one thing though, the key bet on BC Day is to key Belleto underneath in gimmicks.

Like I told Andy the other day Mike....all I ever ask for is a chance...I just wanted a chance for Round Pond to win. But when you know at the 1/2 mile you have ZERO chance...it is maddening. They could not have gift wrapped that any better for Fleet Indian. Now...I am not saying that RP would have won...but I think she could have given FI fits if Prado had stayed back with her, instead of up on the lead with those fractions.

I just wanted a chance and Prado gave RP ZERO chance that race.
