Seriously, she won impressively but how in the world does she get a better trip?

Perfect trip in the Bonnie Miss. Perfect trip Saturday. Does she have an 'against the grain' effort in her?
Yes, the Frizette. She made a premature move in a collapsing pace and still won.

She was inside the 2nd horse and got the jump on her as that one got stuck behind horses and took a while to change leads in the lane. I don't think that move was premature and she certainly got a better trip than the runner up. The same way she got a better trip than Biofuel.

When she tried to make a genuine against the grain run in the Silverbulletday, she got gutted.

I don't agree.

The Silverbulletday is clearly a throwout.

She totally freaked at the gate, gave them a hard time loading and from watching the replay she never at any point settled.

In other words, she tried to make an early run against a loose horse and threw up her lunch.

But she certainly had no trouble sitting behind 3 horses that were going at it in the Bonnie Miss and strutting her stuff late.

You completely discount the gate incident? That doesn't make much sense, and also the fact the race was first of a couple month layoff and clearly not a goal of the connections make it a toss.

All I'm saying is that the horse can win with good trips and has yet to win with a bad trip. If she's so good, where's her 'adversity' race. Where's her Rachel Alexandra Preakness or Woodward race? Hell, where's her race where she got a worse trip than the runner up?

I didn't see the SBD, so I have no idea what happened at the gate. I do know, however, that the start (and what happened subsequently) pretty much eliminated Biofuel in the MG.
