I agree...I think this just enhances her price in the BC Distaff...I know she likes CD...Polytrack?..who knows about that surface...Spun Sugar ran even worse...

Happy Ticket had her head turned when they broke from the gates and she didn't get the best of starts because of it....then, when she began to move on the turn and straightening for home, she got shut off and lost a lot of momentum....

Let me say this about Polytrack just from my experience and opinions based on the information I have on it....IMO, it would be a surface that would be very hard to regain momentum on due to its softness and with all of the give in the surface.....think about it...once you lose momentum and have to try to re-accelerate quickly I bet you do a lot of spinning of the wheels trying to get back to full stride and momentum....just a guess but it makes a helluva lot of sense to me....

Happy Ticket will be fine....I know how genuine she is...I'm sold on that and have been for a long time....her Polytrack disappointment will only inflate her odds on BC day....I'll take her and run at 8-1 or better in the Distaff....
