I thought this was intriguing...

She got a 107 in that race? That means Unbridled Belle got like a 105-106? I wasnt visually impressed but glad she got it done.

It fits.... UB has ran that before on easy leads... She had a easy lead, but this time ran into a filly who is getting really good. I would bet Music Note at 6-1 in the Distaff vs Zenyatta.

Her Beyer that day was very difficult to make, I'm sure, because of the rain that hit right after her race but visually that was the best race Music Note ever ran by a spectacular margin. Maragh was not into her much, if at all, in the final quarter and she was moving pretty strongly when she hit her stride.

Unbridled Belle has always been a mediocrity to some extent but it's not like she gave Music Note any trouble. She was passed in no time once MN was in high gear.

I don't know what her chances are in the BC but I'll take the last two races she's run over any of her 2008 efforts.
