She has the fastest sprint number in the race, albeit at Finger Lakes and I have no idea how solid the number is.

As if the stars hadn't already aligned enough for her to win this.

Then this should really set her up, SHE HAS 0% CHANCE TO WIN THIS RACE. She is a lot more likely to run 5th or last.

Yeah, Nonna Mia really is the second coming of Xtra Heat. You're right.

I think this group SUCKS. All of them, not just the Finger Lakes horse.

To counter your Beyer decline, she is 0-2 = x in terms of Thorograph, this pattern has yielded a return to the top alot.

She runs her debut race, which was huge, she will win

I'm not really an avid Sheets user but based on the patterns each of these fillies have, isn't it more likely that Nonna Mia or Zermatt run big races?

The problem, of course with every horse in this race not named Funny Feeling is that you're banking on them rating and being successful. If you have the stones to play a horse in here who you think is speed of the speed you're taking a gigantic chance.

I think Nonna Mia will be the speed of the speed and I think Zermatt will rate.

There's really no way Nonna Mia outruns Stormandaprayer to the first quarter, and so far NM has shown absolutely no ability to rate. I think she's a terrible bet at 2-1. Even though the race sets up for Funny Feeling, she had no excuse in the Prioress so she's hard to take at 5-2. Zermatt beat a terrible MSW field last time out and also isn't guaranteed to rate. How anybody can eliminate LBT is beyond me.

On this track? Surely you jest. How many off the pace, outside winners have there been so far?

My comment dealt more with figuring out who the speed of the speed is in this field and then betting that horse. It's far from an easy task.
