RA = 1 1/4 and farther, should compete in optional claimers (not within her scope - same as Z couldn't beat $5k QH claimers at 220 yards - not within her scope).
This -- -- is about 17 times too subtle for how this analysis just made me feel.

Ps, In 2008, I thought La Tee was the best female sprinter in the country between 5.6 and 5.8 furlongs.

She might have beaten Indian Blessing at 5.6f - but I highly doubt she'd have had a chance against her at 5.7f.... and NO WAY IN HELL does she beat IB at 5.8 furlongs.

Brian, tell me you knew!

I disagree totally. I think IB would have been a lock at 5.6f and 5.8f, but there is no way in ****** hell that IB beats La Tee going 5.7f.

La Tee had one of the greatest spurts of acceleration I've ever seen between the 5.6 and 5.7 markers.
