I'm no pedigree expert but I don't see how that's a fair comparison.

Unfair? If he's a sire of sires, then those are the standards to compare against.

$4 a gallon, now that's unfair!

It's a loaded 55K stake anyway - Sweet Hope is back on dirt and in there. Puskita and Indian Way are obviously both very talented and will be the two to beat.

I expect a few scratches for sure.

Do you remember Sweet Hope from the Keeneland Sale? She worked :20 1/5.

That out of the way, two of the very impressive recent maiden filly winners he's had, Puskita and Indian Way, somehow ended up in the same race at Delaware Park on the 23rd.

Indian Way's debut was at SA back in April. She hopped at the start and was off real slow. She was about ten back early on and then went seven wide while rallying up for third.

She made her next start about a month later and got away cleanly. She was up near the lead and drew off as they turned for home for an easy five length win in about 114.3, over a ridiculously fast track.

I don't expect this one to be around very long as she's trained by Harty.

Puskita debuted May 25th at Pimlico off of only two published works. In what I felt was a stunning debut, she pressed just off the pace and drew off to win by 15 in 110.3, over a pretty slow track. She only got a 96 BSF for that performance, but man, she looked like a freight train coming down the lane!

Indian Way is in Tony Dutrow's barn now. I don't know how she ended up in his barn. Mercedes Stable still owns her. Indian Way ran huge at Hollywood Park. Most people consider that race to easily be the strongest filly maiden race of the meet. The 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place finishers are all decent horses and IW blew them away.

Yes.

I bet her in her US debut - and touted her on Steve's show with the assumption that she was a Euro flop and the meds over here might bring her back to life.

I wish I would have known she was running that day at Bay Meadows. I don't know how I missed her. I didn't even realize that she had run in this country until she was entered in the stakes race at Hollywood. I made a big bet on her that day but she lost.
