Would love to see the big mare school that little filly in the lane

But BL will bail before the race … just like RA did in Arky…

Or just like Zenyatta did against Nashoba's Key or just like Zenyatta did on the KY Oaks undercard last year.

Or just like Zenyatta would have if Sea of Stars had come over for the BCC.

Would expect JS to scratch her again if the strip comes up too wet for the BC...

Still remember that joke of a track which carried the distance-challenged LH to a second place finish in the Derby back in '04.

Wouldn't let the big mare anywhere near a strip like that if it was my call...
