She needed a confidence builder. It was the right thing to do for the horse.

I was only talking about this race. She needed the win for the fans but more importantly for herself.

This is a very key point and as much as I would like to see her beat up on the boys again would it be wise to start laying out a competitive schedule against them ?

If their ultimate goal is to win the BCC I would think they would want something left in the tank.

I wouldn't run her against QR yet. I don't think she needs another gut wrencher right now.
