I didnt look at the PP's before the race...but I think the mistake people made on the winner was seeing that she broke her maiden for 25K and was moved "up in class" to 50K. There really is no such thing as a 50K claimer at Tampa. No one in their right mind...IMO...would claim a horse for 50K at Tampa. I think this class (50kN2L) is written at Tampa basically for trainers that feel their horses aren't strong enough for ALX, but don't want to run them for a cheap tag and risk losing them. The majority of the horses in that race today are realistically 20-30K claimers.
Easy to say after the fact and I am sure to catch some sh*t, but the winning horse made sense today. A nice ground saving trip from Montalvo didn't hurt either.
