Helmet finished 12th.

Ortensia won by 1.25 lengths with blinkers on for the second time.

Sepoy finished 10th.

So You Think beaten a total of four lengths and finished 4th.
There's no doubt that they've ruined this horse mentally by racing it upside down on an unfamiliar surface in the USA.
Was a successful lay for me, as I had flagged it as a lay, but very sad for all concerned with the horse.
