This isnt like she went in 50. She stole the 1st quarter in 24.2 and then proceeded to run unchallenged throughout. Sometimes you guys forget that a horses campaign is not a series of isolated races, they are all relative to each other. I'm not convinced that she is better than the other filly, especially at the FG and at the distance.

ok. proud spell is a very very nice filly and i have said that a number of times, but i will stick to the fact that i belive today, in this 4 horse race i dont think there is anyway she beats indian blessing if gomez opens up on the turn, like another poster stated earlier she could have opened up 5 easily, and proud spell would have been used up to go, or sit back and possibly have to much ground to make up
