Not sure what she was running against, but I was pretty impressed. Looked like JV had to work her after the slow start. Then she ends up going wide and runs down the leader. Definitely not the easiest of trips in a debut.

Ran like a good thing to me. See where they go and what happens, but I liked it.

Covered more ground than any other in the race. Pletcher on ATR Tuesday said BC Juvenile Fillies the goal and Spinaway (9/5) very possible.

Amazing that her dam raced at 2,3, and 4 and missed the Breeders Cup every year. Hopefully this filly will have better luck..

 (I still remember how indignant Jerry Bailey after the BCC was at the thought that Rachel might possibly beat Zenyatta for HOY, seeing as how she didn't run in the BC. Heh.)
