The stands at Kyoto were agape with shock Sunday as long shot Ingrandire went wire-to-wire for an astounding 7-length win of the marathon spring Emperor's Cup (Jpn,I).
It was a smashing upset, one that made a joke of the highly touted "fab four 4-year olds" -- Lincoln, Neo Universe, That's the Plenty and Zenno Rob Roy. Zenno Rob Roy managed to scramble home in second, with Silk Famous in third place 1 3/4 length behind Zenno Rob Roy. Chakra followed in fourth place half a length later.
