No, but she ran well enough and fast enough that it seems perfectly reasonable to expect that she might be close to where she was last year in her next start.
People (including the connections apparently) make it sound as if she went from being Citation last year to being a $5K claimer in her her first race this year. Neither is the case.

again here are the facts:
1 horse off from sept to late jan , 1 horse working regurlaly even though she was supposed to be retired since oct
they both race sat and will go again in 3 weeks - who has the fitness edge ?? are we to believe that Z has no fitness edge?
are we to believe that if the roles were reversed moss and sheriffs would acclerate Z's training from late jan to get her ready to run against a horse that hasn't missed a beat since oct in the AB?
