I can't agree at all with the assessment that u never know when Spun Sugar will fire. She had only been off the board once in her 11 career starts so it seems to me that she fires just about every time. In addition to that, in her six career races around two-turns, she was 5-1-0. How do u make the claim that u never know when she'll fire? In her two-turn races, she's handled Keeneland, Pimlico, Saratoga, Gulfstream, and Oaklawn. If anything, she's shown that she's very consistent and doesn't need to take her track with her.

The Distaff division is weak compared to the FM Turf. Using Beyers Asi Siempre looked better coming in than Happy Ticket. Spun Sugar might do well in her races but her figures are all over the place. She has about two or three lifetime races that she had a high enough figure to run with Asi Siempre.
