I think there is a big difference between 6f and 7f. I haven't been to the OTB since Sumwon's last race and don't know how the track is playing. I hear it plays different everyday. Hopefully the rail stinks and Sumwon is on the best part of the track.
I was the one "clamoring" for 9f. (I never said anything to Chuck about it). I really thought $$$ she would carry her speed.
I don't think you can claim distance as the reason Sumwon lost at Saratoga. The competition is intense. No one has gone wire to wire in a route (at least in the week before her race). The moment I saw the first fraction and the loose reins I knew we were beat.
either way
I hope I was wrong about the route distance and you are right about the sprint.
She should do well because I am not going weigh her down with the same amount of money I put on her last time.
