Not bad, considering she wasn't fully cranked, but I dunno, I wasn't as blown away as I thought I'd be, and this is coming from one of Melhor Ainda's biggest supporters in the world.

Very workmanlike. Not the devastating kick I saw at three. Maybe this will turn out to be even more effective, but it's not as fun to watch.

Ateam.....there was no pace. You must have pace for closers to have a visually impressive performance. I think it was a great ride and showed her class in that she won without the ideal setup.

I understand, but she's run in races without pace and shown a bigger burst at the end (Sands Point, Miss Grillo, etc.)

I dunno, maybe I'm just a worry wart, but I'm anxious to see how far the princess moves forward off this.
