Ouch!
I'll stubbornly look to bet against BSharpsonata in her next dirt race.....though if I were the connections I would be optimistic about her chances in the Ashland. They would be foolish to skip that race in favor of the Bonnie Miss. Though, the Bonnie Miss could come up pretty weak. However, she's not likely to get this kind of pace set-up.

I just think she is a nice, versatile filly who has demonstrated the ability to run on a lot of different surfaces. She can win around one turn or two, and on the turf, a fast dirt, and a sloppy dirt track.
I think your original designation of her as a "turf horse" is still accurate if by it you just meant that she is probably better on the turf than on the dirt. But I think she had demonstrated before today that she was capable of being fairly good on dirt as well.
Game Face may very well prove to be the better filly overall, but as I said before, I jut didn't think the stretch to 8f off a 50+ day layoff made her a good play here.
