I guess that would be a poor performance by her, because if I understand the various other statements in this thread (not necessarily by you), if she had been in the Travers, she would have won with a BSF of 130.

While the older horses are nothing real special, there is still a reason that it is so unheard of for a 3yo filly to be taking on open competition on September 5th.
Somebody doesn't think it's a foregone conclusion: http://startelegramsports.typepad.co...slingshot.html

Can you say Marty magic?

I thought the title of the blog post you linked was brilliant ...

As for the rest of it .... not so much.

Its not a question of which Its a Bird shows up, its more of a question of which Marty shows up. Will Marty be tweeting all week and after the race?

Unless Mr. Wolfson brings his box of tricks to the dance.. It is high, it is far, it is a forgone conclusions.

I thought it interesting that Mr. West hasnt found anything else in horse racing to blog about for three months other than RA, Jess Jackson and the Assman.
