Looking at Girls Pearls ALW win, it looked really legit. She tripped out ok, and the pace was contensted like you say...but it really wasn't all that fast of one. She did run an excellent race, and nicely beat some horses who were certainly very well thought of at age 2 anyway. The 2nd place finisher was 2/1 in a Grade 1 stake (albeit perhaps the worst running of the Frizette I've ever seen) and the 4th place finisher was a $2.4 million RNA at KEE April '06. Girls Pearls could certainly outrun her odds in the Dogwood. I've really been tremendously impressed with how well everything has worked out with the partnership. I really liked the reasoning you gave for buying this horse...and thought she was just an excellent choice by you guys. Although, I really have to admit, that I thought if she was going to be competitive in Churchill Downs allowance races...they'd have been turf races off the pedigree projection. I've really enjoyed watching her develop in her races anyway....and watching everything pan out so well for the stable.

I wouldn't put anything past the McPeek barn right now.. He's hot. If she duplicates her effort from three weeks ago, she's right there with the top choices. Haven't looked at PP's close enough to get a read on pace scenario, but from a pure speed standpoint, she's an overlay. Remember that McPeek has Lansdon Robbins' nice filly in here too.. Looky Yonder. Also looks to be a major player...

I'll let Chuck respond for us, but I'd say their results will be 'interesting' to see only. How the filly herself is acting leading up to a next start will influence where that effort will be...
