That was a great race. Sierra Leone and Forever Young were absolutely running down Mystik Dan and in another 10 feet would have easily passed him but that is the way it goes. Having a 3 way finish that close was great.
Despite the result it really feels like Sierra Leone was the best horse. Got caught in the pack earlier and had to slow down, ended up having to go very wide and then was bumping with Forever Young down the stretch only to lose by a nose.
But it is what it is and Mystik Dan did what he had to do to hold on and win when it mattered. Pretty great race.
Boy the favorite Fierceness sure faded. I knew it had dropped but I was so focused on the front 3 I thought it was sitting back at 5 or 6 but had faded all the way to 15. Wow.
...Waiting on the replay. :-(
