You can't be looking at the right photo. He lost by a buger, that way very close.

Stardom Bound ran his final 1/16th of a mile in about 5 seconds. That is pretty amazing. He must have run his final 1/8th of a mile in about 10 seconds. That is unheard of for practically any horse, let alone a 2 year old.

However, you can't compare this to regular dirt. Polytrack plays more like grass when it comes to being able to run fast final 1/8ths and quarters.

Goes Wednesday in the Sorrento 7th race. They have really high hopes for this one.

You might get a decent price here in this G3 for two year fillies. The extra distance may be to her liking judging by how she finished the debut.

Default If she......

Wouldn't have broke slow and spotted the field a few lenghts, I feel like she would have run them off their feet. She breaks well tomorrow, she could crush even though alot of these phillies have bright futures. Mike Smith better not sleepwalk her out of there once again.

Doc, you may have a point here with the field and she hasn't even run a race but my concerns odds wise is that people will watch replay and think that the extra distance is what she needs thus i hate to say but im thinking 5/2? hope she runs good as im impressed with her first race.
