All things considered, it was Seventh Street's best race by far. She got a 100 for the Apple Blossom after crawling on the lead on a speed track. Saturday, she actually had to earn her number.
I have no idea on a beyer scale.

just looking at a final time for 1 1/16th on dirt 142.13 is very good. They also came home pretty well for fast paced 1:42 race, but I'm not considering that in the beyer.

Looking at the full chart, the 9th race allowance shows similar fractions, so I am no longer impressed by the raw time. The only thing interesting now is a little bit of a track condition change from "good" to "fast". I am going to assume that the Beyer was accurate, and that with the way the track was playing, 1:42.13 wasn't anything special.
