She never really settled and seemed kind of resentful for being held so hard for so long but with those fractions, in company isnt that what you would expect? Her gallop out was good and as long as she came out ok I didnt see anything else that would make me think she didnt get a little something out of it.

Do you really learn anything though?

From a betting standpoint ... I think viewing the work was a 100% waste of time. It told me nothing ... other than that RA seems quite a bit superior to some crow 3yo.
