Crushed, they ran 45 the first half, 50:4 teh last half. Was inconsolable all night, no doubt in my mind she would have won. Those top three had a 50:4 last half staggerfest and all three looked like drunken sailors, nobody else fired at al, it would have been her day. Kuods to the most incompetetent gate crew in the USA for another "outstanding" job.

I hope she's okay, this Filly's going to be a multiple stakes winner, I couldn't believe the price she was, had her covered up on p3's, really wanted to see her win, but I hope she's fine and she'll win again.

Think she is, looked like she got clipped with the other horses legs and not feet. But you have to understand that even though I had a great day at the windows, I was inconsolable last night. head hurts from medicating myself.
I know completely that she would have won yesterday, it was gonna be her chance and day to win a grade one and she will never have a chance like that again. Ermine, Adieu and teammate never fired, and the three who staggered to the line looked like drunken sailors. After the race i wanted to vomit and almost did. The half goes in 45, then they come home the last half in 50:4. I mean damnit!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was the exact kind of scenario that she would have won under. And you can't go back and change it. That was gonna be her day. Its a very bitter pill to swallow.
