i don't know losing by a length and 1/2 when mike smith was blocked early. this horse is in everyones league and proved it by running in the money in all three races. i actually think he wins that race at 1 1/4 miles. the horses that are NOT in her league are the chumps they set her up against and she beats by 20! the three year old males are going to get bigger and better, some of the contenders have been racing for just a few months. shes out of her league with the fillies but i would not jump to any conclusions just yet, theres plenty of racing left this summer. curlin could not beat rags to riches in june, in october no one could touch him ! if MTB stays healthy along with Summer bird and some of the others this thing is far from being decided.
