I just don't believe that group deserves a Grade 1 ranking. But, if you do, then the Prioress is the correct race.

I NEVER forget when Roussel send his filly, In Secure, to the Prioress. F'n Chavez tried timing the rail opening up and almost got thrown into the infield because she was moving so fast. She was 13/1 that day, it was my first time I had ever put 200WP on a horse over 6/1.......I never got a bigger rush in my life for losing $400. I am still not sure if she would have beaten House Party that day, but with the trip she was getting, if she would have gotten through, the rush would have even been greater
