If someone wants to lie to themselves and call polytrack dirt, then I guess they can pretend a win in the Ashland is a major dirt win, but her legitimate dirt wins are behind her....assuming she ever really had them.

The good news is the better 3YO fillies are at least starting to show up. That, however, is bad news for Dreaming of Anna and her fans.
Not to get all technical on you, but it's Cotton Blossom.
