Maybe it was just my TV, but that\'s the first time I\'ve ever seen a horse LITERALLY run off the screen. For the last eigth of a mile.

I watched it online and did not have that problem. When you watch her prep in the Prix Vermeille, you can see Jarnet did not get to the bottom of her so no surprise she went forward. Still, didn\'t bet her. Older fillies can lose interest and go real bad and that\'s what it looked like. One thing about post one: on the one hand, I thought she would get buried in traffic in a paceless race but everyone else sweeps wide and there\'s a ton of room down there.

Bad camera work. She\'d opened up lengths before the cameraman picked her up. Disappointing stretch run for most viewers.

I agree. I have never understood the under the rails shot that the French are very fond of. I guess they do it because the camera is close to the horses but it is only artsy and not informative at all.

It could be that they like the view of the horses legs.
