CtC,
I am guessing you just like to be in the minority opinion and that you can't possibly believe that Azeri finishing in 5th signals that Azeri was "amiss".
Where do you get this stuff from? That was a very very tough field. I like to be contrarian as well, but EVERYBODY agreed the field was tough. Many predicted Azeri would come in the very back of the pack. She ran respectablly well. I find no shame in losing to any of the horses she lost to. She wasn't amiss, they were just better horses. He should she have beaten? Ghostzapper? Roses in May? Pleasantly Perfect? Perfect Drift?
She finished ahead of Dynever, Birdstone, Funny Cide and a few other nice Grade 2 quality colts. I say nice job by Azeri.
