Does this mean they may try Nobiz on the turf? I think he may do well with his pedigree.

It means that Mauralakana is a fast bitch.

I like her too.:)

There was an article in the DRF either Saturday or Sunday saying that Tagg was thinking about taking him on the grass.

Thanks Brian. I'll look for it.

Here's the article that includes Nobiz trying turf...the headline is about Attila's Storm running in the Vanderbilt.

Thanks!

She's burned a good deal of money for me in the last year. I hope she keeps running well now, cuz regardless of the cash, I still like her.

Mauralakana got smoked in the Just A Game, but I'm willing to give her a pass on that one because Eddie Castro somehow rocked everyone to sleep on My Typhoon. She bounced back nicely in the Locust Grove and she really fits in the Diana given the prospective field. She just might be no better than a G3 filly, but I like that as a spot to try her against a bit better.
