Can't wait for the pics to come in from Tampa from the DT crew ... okay, back to work now!

you have to be impressed with the way she quickened stride late, that will win some races. didn't care for the ride though.

Like Steve said, maybe there's a reason DT didn't win those earlier shakes ... KNS needed to be with Team Chuck.

You have to be careful betting those low percentage connections at a short price.

i'm thinking with a late kick like that , when we have to bring her back up north to churchill to face stronger and to put her in races to protect her, we hope for pace in our races and let her go longer(seems like giving her even more distance would suit her fine) she settles nicely and explodes in the stretch. whatcha think guys?

That Danica quiting on the turn and backing up in her face was a big part of the trouble. Can't fault Homeister for saving ground all the way and Chuck told her she did the right thing..

Her best Beyer coming in was in her longest race so it isn't hard to imagine that she'll be able to handle some more distance.

very much agree....if That Danica bears out a little when tiring the rail opens up and we win by daylight

The saying is "give a quitter more ground"

I think the trip was the problem. not the distance.

When I saw how much she was sweating in the post parade I thought.. too nervous . She ran pretty well today don't know if she should move up anytime soon but if we want to get 8-1 on her ever..

Gulfstream is a good idea, but it would be aggressive. I think it would be really nice to start the new year off with a win and then start going after the big dogs

i agree the trip was the problem here and not the distance. but i'm thinking ahead , she might be stronger yet at more of a distance when she comes to ky. and instead of putting her in a lower claiming class where she might win and get claimed, maybe move her up a little to a longer distance and a class thats a little stronger where she won't get claimed. she may surprise all of us and maybe can compete against stronger at a longer distance. maybe she would just relish more and do better against them

Running her for 50k and she might get claimed. Allowance company is most likely in her future.
