Well that was underwhelming!
Lots of horses never picked up a hoof at any point.
Another crappy crop save a couple.
The race much more about the riders than any of the horses.
OK, roll out that big

Didn't it look like 4 horses figured good enough to win and the rest were not much?

I thought two looked good in the race. Top two.
Rest looked like crap.
Mr. Big News????? 
He had a sign pinned to his tail that read...
"If you can read this, you should be pulling a milk wagon."
***
Baffert just got knocked on his butt in the winner's circle by his horse!

I used him because never ignore a Don Alberto, that's how I got Battle of Midway in 2017 and he had also run 3rd at high odds.
Per the milk wagon ? Don't reallly understand the comment.....not sure this breeding would deserve that. I guess you didn't notice the nice Darby Dan foundation mares in his pedigree, and/or if you even believe in pedigree a little bit that 33 in the classic placeholder of his dosage----many times horses with a certain breeding don't show it til they run in longer races..........and since we have SO MANY OF THOSE classic distance races here in the U.S........rolls eyes
Actually a bloodstock agent friend of mine turned me on to this horse and said to watch out so I did. 
Milk wagon is a term of endearment right? Like tomato can? All horse lovers here, we would not use deprecating terms for them right?
I wish we had more Galileo/Sadlers well bottoms in our horses for stamina. Nobody here wants to breed for it.

Do you think their feelings will be hurt if someone gives them the link?

Pulling a milk wagon refers to the horses BEHIND him (able to read it)
Some were so waaaay behind him, they could not see it, let alone read it! 
Those top two were not all that much "big" horses. the farther they ran, the smaller they got to most of the others.

Hindsight is 20/20 as they say, and with the scratch of Thousand Words that left only two horses who had any talent to beat Tiz the Law. Honor AP was last at one point and had no shot then to win. What would the outcome have been if Franco sends him to the lead after out breaking Authentic. Are we looking at a possible Triple Crown winner in five weeks or could Authentic have stalked and ran him down? We will never know of course.

Not sure how the winner made the final panel after withering in Santa Anita and Haskell. No way in hell I put an Into Mischief on top. Big News did have some big breeding but nothing to really show for it until he did show. Used Tiz over and under in all the future wager pool but, unfortunately, Authentic was in all of them and didn't touch him with a ten foot barber pole. Maybe Baffert had some leftover magic oats he fed Charlatan in Arkansas.

This guy was 300% stamina, but of course, he's running in races that are way too short for him, wrong distance, to shine. But this is what we have to offer him.....what happens and why I am losing interest in US racing---- speed speed speed is all that seems to matter----we don't even card races for horses like this.
Then they are made fun of because they're not running 110 beyer speed figures. (Horses like this don't do that......that's not how they work).
Sorry, but this is everything that is wrong with so called "classic distance" racing here. And why we didnt' have a TC winner for 30+ years.
The best breeding in the entire race, and he's called a milk horse.
