I'm not Octave's biggest fan by any stretch, and Moon Catcher is one of three that can win the race, but Octave is very much the horse to beat. If she loses I think I prefer Talkin About Love.

Octave is a solid filly that I've come to respect but I'm not sold on her at a mile and a sixteenth. To date she's lost at that distance to Dreaming of Anna, Christmas Kid, and Mistical Plan. I fully expect Moon Catcher to join that list unless an insane speed duel develops.
