I don't understand this at all. He actually finished better than I thought he would.

I don't think it was a matter of God frowing on him, he's just not good enough.

Obviously it's a shame TCI got hurt, but I don't think he was shooting up the rail to win.

My answer would be Union Rags, terrible start, checked sharply on the backstretch and still ran 6th. I'm not saying he was gonna win, but with a clean trip he certainly could have made some noise.
