However, for Rags to Riches, this seems to be perfect first start - just a nice tuneup for longer races. She's by AP Indy and trained by Todd Pletcher - this filly by a Belmont winner who is a 1/2 to a Belmont winner should thrive as the summer progesses into the fall. She could be a good one -at least I hope so!
Betsy I saw this race and Rags to Riches broke very poorly and still managed to get a piece. No way was she beating the winner that day. Rags To Riches is a horse that I have in my stable. She had a very good debut.
