If you want to see what a real sensational under-tack video looks like, watch this work by Tempted To Tapit's sister Dance Card two years ago:

She was hip #64 at the sale and went 9.80 unblinkered. Hip #63 at this same sale was Union Rags who had the joint 2nd fastest unblinkered 1/8th of the sale at 10.20 -- you can watch Union Rags work in the link above by clicking the previous button after Dance Cards work.

Dance Card took forever to get to the races (a terrible sign with these kind of horses) she's 5-4-1-0 lifetime and won the Grade 1 Gazelle last time out even though she drifted out very badly again.

I raved about Dance Cards work in the thread for that sale. It was the kind you see only once every two or three years. She would have been incredible if not for losing her entire 2yo season and the first half of her 3yo season to physical issues.
Speaking of Fasig there is some talk going around that this could be the last year for that sale. I believe there is only a 130 something cataloged, then after scratches and more scratches after the breeze show they will be lucky to have 60 to 70 to go through the sales ring.
