what an understatement. take for example in the first race at Keeneland on Friday. She's running Furlong Baby, a horse that has run against straight maidens four times at CD, Bel, and Saratoga. The horse has never been a factor at any point in those races. the finish beaten lengths are 15, 20, 15, 28. So Friday she goes long against straight maidens at Keeneland? the result will be the same, a double digit defeat. i know nothing about training a horse, but you don't have to be a Charlie Whittingham to see that she continuously runs her horses in spots where they can't win.
