Same story with Gio Ponti...
Always finds a way...He hangs like a cheap suit..no excuse last 70 yards got blown away in the lane...

Sometimes I wonder why people bother following a sport they are so confused by. Gio Ponti hung? How so?

Off the layoff he was vulnerable, as well as the Dubai factor .
Until I see the race, I will assume he may have gotten outfinished, which is not hanging .

Ramon didn't see the winner coming imo.
It was an impressive race even if he didn't win - he certainly didn't hang. Not many American horses could move through the field the way that Gio Ponti had to.

Seems like he lost his passing ability when he got wired by Interpretation a few lines down. To lose to a horse like that, means something is wrong.

I only watched the finish twice so I won't commit - but it looked like Ramon thought it was in the bag for the horse and let him gear down a bit.
He got beaten by the best horse in recent times at Santa. The one time he hung was against Intrapadation - not an excuse but a lot of good turf horses loses their kick when the surface is yielding.

There isn't enough time in the day to try and correct you. Have at it. He didn't hang.
I want to know how you hang when you get run down though. That is a new one on me.

A hanger is a horse that won't go by another horse.

Is this is a serious thread? Didn't you also start the one whether Monmouth would outhandle Belmont today? Am I missing something?
If Tipper gets custody of the internet I hope she shuts it down because stuff like this is a bit much to take.
