18. I was hoping Bird would do it, but it was a thrilling finish
and RA is magnificent - can hardly be unhappy, though I would have preferred that the 1-2 order be reversed. She'd still be adulated. But, at least, that little horse won't be dismissed as a "fluke" now, or all the credit given to the track conditions. (I actually heard one of the commentators today say that MTB "had everything his own way" in the Derby). And good for the very gritty MM, who always hangs in there. I'd have liked to see GQ do a bit better in this one. Wonder what the story was with POTN and FF?
