She wasn't, even if her 4YO campaign was basically wrecked by a trip to Dubai. She was very good.

IC also said that he thought Uncle Mo's King's Bishop was overrated while his Timely Writer was extraordinary.

Loved her thought she was fast, well traveled etc. Who was she bred too?

I think Zensational, but really not sure.

Indian Blessing was a dam fast filly. How was she overrated?

I just think a lot of people thought she was better than she really was.

Context is a useful thing.

Try using it sometime.

Yes, Zensational.

Not sure who she was bred to once she foaled that Zensational colt though.

No kidding.

I thought his Timely Writer performance was huge.

Really?

Just think if you had listened to me on Musical Romance.

The funny thing about her is that I picked her 2nd in the Masters Stakes and this is what I wrote about her in the newspaper tip sheet for that race:

Quote:

4. Musical Romance: An extremely good horse on other surfaces, but she ran poorly in her only prior synthetic start.

http://www.goerie.com/article/201109...Masters-Stakes

Obviously, Musical Romance put the synthetic questions to rest when she won the Masters at 9/1 odds and beat Switch in the Kee Stakes -- where she was 2nd beaten a nose against a speed biased winner at 6fs.

I was too sucked in on only Switch and Tanda in the multi-wins.

But what a nice horse Musical Romance is. She's excellent on all 3 different surfaces -- she's Calder tough -- ran something like 16 times this year and about 30 times the last two years. She's willing to ship all over and race on the road. It would be a travesty if they don't give her champion filly and mare sprinter this year.
