Graveyard of Champions indeed.

1. Did he set a fast pace? The winner was flying at the end.

[twogunsid]

2. Nope....

:24 and :48.1 to the half. Think he may just be a little tired.

3. Well if I owned him, this would be his last race.

4. Stallion deal is already in place....

I'd train him up to the BC Classic.

5. Can't win them all...

I'm amazed at his win streak.

Time to put him In a nice condo with Barry White music.

6. No shame in this result....

He's a helluva horse.

7. Keen Ice is finally coming into his own.

I think AP was just not having a good day because he's proven that he could beat Keen Ice time and time again, but that really was a great performance by Keen Ice (with a new jockey aboard). That horse has been improving steadily since the Derby.

All that said, I continue to be a super Bob Baffert fan. He is always so humble when he loses and always gives appropriate deference and appreciation to the winning horse.

8. You called it after the Pacific Classic....

I on the other hand did not give Keen Ice a chance in hell of upsetting AP. Good job, hamsterjill!!!!

9. and he's going to be running in the Breeders Cup.....
