Help, I need somebody,
Help, not just anybody,
Help, you know I need someone,
Help!
And from Springsteen, \"I\"m going down, down, down, I\'m going down, down .........
I never saw it.
I had a BIG Conduit/Gio Ponte Double and followed him every step of the way. He split horses mid-stretch to surge to the lead but Trevor Denman kept screaming \"AND ZENYATTA IS FLYING.\"
I look up and suddenly there was another horse with 50 yds to go in front of mine. Like \"SHE JUST JUMPED IN AT THE 8TH POLE.\"
I am still in disbelief.
I also used Gio Ponti & Colonel John with Conduit in huge ($200) doubles.
Dominquez put the stick away and started hand-riding and then saw a beast go by him.
She is UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!
Worst beat was the mile keying Ready\"s Echo in $100 exactas with Midshipman and Chocolate Candy (who did no running at all), only to get beat by that piece of garbage Furthest Land.
Needles to say I have been popping Advils like M&Ms for the last 2 hours.
Good Luck,
Joe B.
What is with you? \"Piece of garbage.\" If you can\'t get through a day of racing without this kind of thing you should find something else to do. Learn to take your lumps like a man.

I have seen the replay of the Classic a half a dozen times and if they ran the race 10 times the outcome would be the same.
Denman began teeing the entire stretch run by calling, \"If Zenyatta can win from here she is a superhorse.\" He pretty continued calling her every move.
Gio Pinty (that\'s what he looked like next to the amazon mare) ran his heart out and never got a stretch call until he was passed in the last 50-75 yds. This is a really good horse who seems to have gotten lost in all the shuffle.
Any opinions on Einstein who was behind Rip when he completely stopped. Could he have gotten up for second or third. He took up and ended up behind and following the filly.
No chance to get anywhere from there. I figure he lost six lengths.
