She was in a good position but (Proposed) had quicker acceleration than my filly. I think that was the difference. But my horse was gaining and she galloped out good and strong.
She can run on the front or come from behind. She ran some tough races last year and she came back real good this year. There's a long year ahead, and she just did a super job.
I think the stewards did a good job. His horse (Javier Castellano on Corinthian) was supposed to maintain a straight course.
It worked out beautifully. Wayne gave me exact instructions to come running out of the gate but give her a little breather on the backside. She ran a good race.
