Seems to be a huge filly who takes a while to get going, but she ran on with Proud Spell in her race at the Fair Grounds and didn't lose a step to that one. Fired a bullet work, on top of it. I think there's enough pace in here to set her up and we might, if we're lucky, get 5-1...

Was there a third turn....because she was hardly wide around the first turn I saw her on. She's not impossible but I'm not a fan of suck up plodder types. However, I really haven't finished looking at the race.
