Mike Smith may be the only thing that gets her beat.

Smile

I would have loved to have seen PA and TLG's faces during the race....first no expression. On the turn, the resigned that she was gonna win look. 1/8th pole a smile begins, then a big smile cause they think she's gonna get beat. Then the oh oh it's gonna be close look. Then the big frown when she swallowed her look. The song remains the same. Next stop Churchill Downs to shut the non believers up once and for all.

Yes, what an impressive run. Beating Switch (who?) barely, while giving her 3 lousy pounds.

We're going to need a suicide watch around here when she's off the board in the Classic.

Then, after LaL's race, I watched Zenyatta's, in which I was completely unsurprised. Good for them...cookie-cutter stuff, but a win's a win [anymore].

Here's definitely looking forward to the BC.

Low 29, I think, not sub-29.

Isn't there some natural buffer time after a race before this begins?

Agreed....and her consistency is just remarkable. I mean that sincerely. It's just too bad she has been coddled for so long.

I thought I saw they came 29.1 on the board....if that's the case, she came about 28.3.
