@Horse Racing Fan 99, Agreed! I've always been a huge Beholder fan, but I readily admit that I had Songbird picked over Beholder in the Distaff. But I'm really happy for Beholder and I consider it the best money I ever lost, LOL. I would also add that I think Songbird proved that she's the real deal in this race. She ran such a good race in her own right that you really hate to see either of them get tagged with a loss for their performances in this race.
@johnkaufmann88758 жыл бұрын
Horse Racing Fan 99 The Distaff & Classic were mirror images. Both SONGBIRD & CALIFORNIA CHROME loose on the lead sitting on uncontested leads only to be run down by amazing performances. Unfortunately, stupid idiots blame Espinoza. What would u have like the man to do? Go 45 and change for the half instead of 47:15? Both BEHOLDER & ARROGATE ran down their rivals off of similar fractions yet the venom towards Victor Espinoza is totally uncalled for.

Well, I don't think anything would have changed the outcome in the Distaff. Both Beholder and Songbird have uncommon speed and endurance. However, in the Breeders Cup Classic Chrome probably didn't do himself any favors by leading a slow pace. Had he picked it up early he could have worn down Arrogate, leaving him with no kick at the end of the race. Who know, though? As Steve Spurrier once famously said, "Hindsight is 50/50."
@billjones26138 жыл бұрын
That's an over generalization. I'm not talking rabbit pace. As leisurely as the early pace was, Chrome easily could have set a faster pace without tiring himself, forcing Arrogate to pick up his own pace, theoretically having less in the tank at the end to challenge Chrome. A slower pace benefits the faster horse with less endurance. A faster pace can benefit a slower horse with more endurance. Regardless, Arrogate at this point in their careers is probably the better horse.

This why horse racing is both such a fantastic and, yet, such a cruel sport virtually all at the same time. A race for the ages between two of the megastars of their era and a lesser known competitor breaks down and has to be destroyed. A bit of a pall cast over what has to be the crowning glory of the legendary Beholder's racing career. Props to, to Songbird, for making this race one that will never be forgotten. Also, RIP to that poor equine who lost her life giving more than her body was physically able to give and in the end paid the ultimate price. I wish I could remember her name. Oh well, not important. I say that because we all know that in the grand scheme of things when this race is recalled that tragic occurrence will be all but forgotten.

Poor Stellar Wind. No way you can spot horses like Beholder and Songbird the start. She really never had much of a chance given their talent. As for Songbird I'm very impressed. I happen to think the 3 year old filly crop is good and deep this year and she's been beating them with ease. Losing to a consummate older champion like Beholder by a bob of the nose after an entire stretch drive is incredibly impressive. First time she was seriously challenged in a race and she responded like the champion she is. Next bob after the wire her nose was in front, it was that close. Finally, hats off to Beholder. Looks like she's proved she never lost a step and confirmed that the level of her competition was much better this year than what she ran against last year, including that weak Pacific Classic field which she trounced!

En mi modesta opinión, eso cansó a Songbird. En cuanto a Gary Stevens: ¡Sencillamente espectacular! Con 58 años de edad sigue ganando carreras cómo si fuera un muchacho de 25 ¡Y mire que ha sufrido unas cuantas fracturas! En una entrevista hace más de diez años, dijo que a lo largo de su carrera se había roto ¡6 vertebras! y que tiene los hombros completamente reconstruidos amén de 5 ó 6 operaciones en cada rodilla.

This was a wonderful race, but this record of it will be marred by the weak stretch call. Mr. Tom Collmus isn't a bad announcer, but he is too inconsistent to be used for big races like the Breeders' Cup. Here he fumbled his words and his voice broke (again, it happens over and over in tight races). Can't he take some voice lessons to cure that tendency? Every time I watch one of his races I dread that Mr. Collmus will suddenly go soprano. Has there ever been a race were he rouse to the event like Dave Johnson, Chic Anderson, Marshall Cassidy or Tom Durkin? All those men had some bad moments, but those were greatly out numbered by the highs. Can you imagine what a young Dave Johnson would have done with this race? Oh well, NBC doesn't care about what I have to say; Mr. Collmus has a multi-year contract and those checks are not going to bounce.
