Bad turf sprinters are even worse stretching out. She will take money and she is very weak.

I disagree with the assessment of her 3rd race. Leparoux made a HUGE ERROR in that race. He came off a WIDE OPEN inside, giving it up to Catmosphere, who shot through for the win. If he stays inside he has a clear run to the wire. Leparoux takes her outside and had her behind/between horses, bothered slightly late stretch, and she didn't really have a sustained clear run in the lane.

Nonetheless, there are much better options today.

While I usually don't like sprinters going 2 turns, I was impressed by Motion's horse last out.
