On another note...poor Chocolate Lava. This horse can't break her maiden because she keeps running against Grade I caliber horses. In her first start, she had a horrendous trip to finish...I believe it was fifth. Then she runs second to Silver Swallow in her next start who just ran second to Rags to Riches Sunday. Then she runs against this monstrous filly in her next maiden race to finish second again. Sheesh...talk about a tough break.
I thought it was impressive that Chocolate Lava held on for second through the fast early pace.

Estimated fractions for Magnificience:
23.27
22.16
23.73
6.46

Falling behind early may have been the best thing to happen to her and the race may be getting slightly overrated cause it was so visually appealing. To run the 3rd and 4th furlongs in 22.16 and comeback in sub-24 is pretty impressive though.
