Chantal Sutherland on Kenji's Giant in the 4th today at Los Al. She settled on the horse and stalked, saved ground the whole way, came down the rail turning for home, and then was able to sustain the horse's drive all the way down the stretch to hold off the place horse.
She got the absolute maximum performance out of the horse.

She beat me with that ride. The place horse should have passed her two separate times inside the 1/16 pole, and she let her mount fade out just enough both times to keep him from rolling by. That one stuck with me because the place horse was 8/1 and looked like a winner all over the stretch.
Good eye. It was an outstanding ride in a cheap race by Chantal.
