Celeste Beaty, a new player this comp, hits a 16-1 winner today to leap to the lead and make the plate leaderboard as well, and on a very slow day the only other winner was Roger Dore 4-1 to move into 5th.
Sorry but the ride by the young O'Brien on Camelot did leave something to desire OK he could have still won if good enough given he had 1f to catch the winner, but when riding a 2-5 shot for the first triple crown in 40 years you must appreciate that one of the few ways you can get beaten is to not cover an early move and let someone slip the field and so give yourself too much to do. For me that what happened if he had been on the outside the Godolphin runner would not have got the lead he stole and things might have been different.
Shows why it has been 40 years!
