>But in this win was the added sweetness of revenge for Forever Young’s defeats behind Sierra Leone in last year’s Classic and Kentucky Derby.
>Yahagi spoke about that desire for revenge at Del Mar on this day 12 months ago, immediately after Forever Young’s third-place behind Sierra Leone and Fierceness.
>“I want revenge on the horses that were first and second,” he told Idol Horse then.
>This time it was Fujita who expressed a feeling of ‘now or never’ when he said, “Fierceness and Sierra Leone will retire after this race so this was the last chance against these two together, so it was my dream to beat these two horses and the dream came true.”
>“The owner is a successful businessman, has been through a lot, but his facial expression after the race was priceless, like this was a once in his lifetime experience.”
