Nice win by Blind Luck, though a bit green maybe.

The Fantasy is turning out to be a nice race lately.

Both the top two look like really legit horses...they powered away from the back markers. I was really impressed by both Blind Luck and Tidal Pool and those two have to be considered the clear top 2 going into the Oaks in a month.

Tidal Pool part of a clear top 2? She pretty much had things her own way and yet offered no resistance when Blind Luck came at her.

Surely Devil May Care rates a bit better than her.

I don't think Tidal Pool needs a perfect trip to run her race...I think Borel took advantage of the race scenario today to give her a good trip on the front end, but I expect her to revert to more of a stalking type of role in the Oaks with more speed and more horses signed up. I think Tidal Pool can work out a good trip no matter where she ends up being placed in the Oaks because she doesn't need the lead and Blind Luck at least on dirt might just be that good.
