Rich Strike is a fluke… That’s all…
Rich Strike won the Kentucky Derby. Since then he has struggled to show that his victory was more than the sheer luck. He finished fourth in the Travers and sixth in Breeders' Cup Classic. His best race came at Churchill Downs, but he couldn't win. The Clark Stakes should be the final nail in his coffin. He is a solid grade 2 to grade 3 type horse. When run against the best in a division, he will lose by several lengths more often than he'll win, according to the trainer. It's time to stop pretending that he's a Cinderella story. he came from a small barn.
