Message: [QUOTE="m1c, post: 2250958, member: 1944"] i think 11 of his 12 cup winners have run on Derby Day. Echoing Jebs sentiments it was a terrible ride on Viewed. No idea how he ended up from a perfect position to pretty much last at the turn, effectively ending any chance he had of being in the finish. He was about 5L off Shocking then and finished about that off him too. Nothing more frustrating in races than seeing favorites not being given a chance. You'd rather they do a bit of extra work and be given a crack at the finish. All credit to Shocking however, that's one of the best Melbourne Cup wins i can remember. 3 wide with no cover pretty much the entire trip! Not to mention Brown had to put the whip away and re balance him a cpl of times in the straight. Unbelievable. [/QUOTE]
