The field is hilarious......almost every horse is a turf horse. The Spinster should be a Win and You're In for the F&M Turf.
REally? I can't quite figure out what Frankel is doing with her. She runs a nice race sprinting on poly last year. Instead of bringing her back in a sprint, he brings her back at SAR in a route, exposing her on the lead in fast fractions, getting her beat when she was best. He then cuts her back on the dirt and has her chasing/biding wide, at the wrong point in the race. Now, he's stretching her out again, 1/16th further than she's ever gone. How exactly is she supposed to win this race? Not like Prado has any sense of pace on the front end. She's talented; give her a break.
