I'll be shocked if Check the Label hits the board.

Seriously. I can make a case for others but I don't think she'll be up the track. We'll see.

Toner's horse shouldn't be 30-1 on the ML either, IMO.

How did she even get invited?

I'm not a Check the Label fan, though I agree with Nick that she moved too soon last time, but to be fair I haven't spent a lot of time looking at the race. I could be being too hasty.

There's not much in the race to be honest. And Check the Label's win over the track was pretty good. This race has seen better fields...All I will say is that I think Check the Label will beat Evening Jewel, not really a race I see making a lot of money on.

If you have to look outside I think it is Snowtop for the place (after the....without pps...obvious winner...Evening Jewel).

Zagora should make some noise here.

Harmonious has more talent than Evening Jewel but her mind limits her... but given anything around 5/1 she is a good play.

It would be a real shame if Harmonious lost this race and somehow wasn't voted 3YO filly of the year.

Especially after all she has done for the game.

Thanks.

I have been very unimpressed with her ( despite my obvious East Coast bias ).

I did nothing smart. I was alive in the 8-9 double with the second place finisher. She was never close.
