    That Arbor Des Champs is pretty tricky to ride. Certainly doesn't help out when leaping a hurdle and leaves a lot to luck. Got her head easily in front today but will have to sharpen up for better races down the line or it won't cut the mustard.

    well obriens horse is rated 116, won a fillies mile and been second in 2 Classics, every horse in the race is going to have to step up

    I called the first oaks spot on btw, including the non staying odds on fav, main bet won, 3 antepost bets put up months before and ruled out by me before the race

    Senga, looked the best horse in the Boussac last year

    Terrakova comfortably accounts for Shutter Speed, would have went close if she wasnt stopped in her tracks by the pulled up Rhododendron

    Average and inconsistent types. They will always throw up mixed ressies when facing each other time and time again. Good ride on the winner.

    Winner hampered the worst and almost last and forced widest around the bend. Decent performance that.

    She has to move to her left and was last turning in. Would have been 2nd last barring the interference. Can't knock her imo. Great win.
