But when I saw the website I took a peak at on lunch time to see an event that should have finished about couple of hours ago...
How can you go back to work with composure after you see this! It was so historical, and I'm not talking about the historical event that would take place on the 4th of November at the other continent...
Vodka, my favorite horse right now having another horse I adore as her father, just won by "2cm", as JRA announced! (pic handed out by JRA)
With the low speed internet, I could only see the low quality video of JRA's website and it was completely impossible to see which filly won... I saw Vodka had more speed, but the spirit of her rival seemed to be stronger with the pride she internally bears...
But as I cautiously went to the page that showed the results, I clenched my fists quietly on my desk... Daiwa Scarlet was second by less than an inch and she ran the race for the first time in about 7 months... how fast and powerful can she be!? But having her and a young three year old Derby winner in between the two rivals surely made this race a historical one cutting the record time of the 2000 meters of Tokyo RC by 0.8 seconds which is just historical as the dramatic finish.
I'm a little jealous for the people at the race course, as I'm sure I would have been there if I had been in Tokyo!
way to go Vodka!
ref: the race from YouTube... I just couldn't stop watching it over and over and time flew by today that I couldn't finish any of the work I had to!! How can you concentrate after you see this!
