She's a nice filly...at a mile or less in my opinion. I understand your argument was based on pedigree...I just don't see in actuality those two outrunning Rags at 10fs unless she just runs terribly.

Fair enough. I agree RTR would have to take several steps backwards to get beat. And I was mistaken about Christmas Kid, I thought she won the Bonnie Miss at 9f, but she was 2nd, and in fact lost the lead to a horse she had passed at the top of the stretch.
