[quote=NTamm1215]I know she was probably a cut below but I was really hoping Criticism would be given a chance in the F&M Turf solely because there was no speed pointing to it and none appeared after the pre-entries came out.

I agree, Criticism would have been very intriguing in the BC. I thought the day she ran 2nd in the rain, Castellano should have had her up on the lead. I think she would have been able to hold off Pure Clan and win that race. With that pace, there is no reason a horse who has been proven to be most effective on the lead should have been rated off the lead.

Her race this weekend was a paid workout. Cant blame them for going for the easy money, but I think they may have second guessed themselves. This BC F&M Turf field isnt all that.
