Love this horse!! I knew Conduit could win the 08' Breeders Cup Turf when I saw him stay 1-3/4 to win the G1 St. Leger at Doncaster. His first G1 win. He weaved all over the track at Doncaster that day, and still managed to hold off the 2 fillies closing on him, Unsung Heroine and Look Here, by 3+ length's!! Not a doubt in my mind, as weak as the 2010 B.C. Turf field was, had Sir Michael Stoute brought Conduit to Churchill Downs that he would've been a 3-time winner of this race, IMO.

@TicinoParadise, beat Conduit pretty handily in the Coral-Eclipse, too. If you'll remember.

Now Sea the Stars absolutely crushed Conduit in the Arc the Following Year, so just imagine what he would have done to the 2009 field, or the Classic field?..........And Conduit is a very very classy colt.

kevin shea is a great jockey.. i saw him riding when he was in mauritius.. he made an 8 years old gelding win 7 times in a row riding hands and heels.. no whip.

The horse with the best ride won fair and square =] I've watched this race more than 15 times, and I'm still utterly amazed at the stupidity of Murtagh's ride on Soldier of Fortune. His 2nd quarter went in 22 and change, how he could expect him to stay after that is beyond me.
the best horse won fair and square!!
