Consistently slow isn't a virtue to me.

Ok Jose... But you will defend other horses to the death, even the ones who get beat all the time, but because they can run 104 beyers? Proviso is the goods, ONLY WAY SHE GETS BEAT TODAY IS WITH A BAD TRIP FROM MIKE. What was wrong with her Spinster? BC Ladies Classic? Even her G1 sprint race? Where is her bad or off day? Im really not seeing her bad race? Tell me where its at, and why you would say you hope todays the day she gets beat? The truth is, every single race she has been in, on turf, has been a slow paced race. If anything she has been totally up against it in her last 3 races, all G1's one vs males.

Not to mention twice running third to Goldikova, once 4th when Goldikova was third beaten a head. Also not badly beaten by Zarkava. Really not sure what anyones beef could be with this gal.

EVERYTHING I SAY IS IMPORTANT.

Dude, she's slow. She was an also-ran in France and she would be here if we had any turf fillies/mares who were worth anything. She never threatened Goldikova or Zarkava except for once when Goldi didn't fire on soft turf. What she did in France is meaningless anyway considering I'm talking about what she is now. She was life and death to beat Shared Account and Forever Together in the Diana. How did those two look in the Flower Bowl? How have Phola and My Princess Jess come back to run? She's beating dregs, there's no two ways about it.

No two ways about it?? Hmmm well she explodes from last, crushing everyones hero Wasted Tears... Also ran much faster then Gio Ponti. How many G1's this year? She was FAR from an also ran in France, but whatever you say Jose.

She beat C.S. mf'ing Silk by a neck. You seriously think that's the accomplishment that should sway me? The pace was faster in the First Lady, so it was obviously going to yield a comparable time to the Shadwell. Wasted Tears was never given a chance by Maragh, who was too worried about a fast pace to let his horse run her race.

Take this with good intent. Proviso has gotten good trip after good trip. Maybe she gets another one today and wins. Maybe her quota of good trips is up for her racing career and she actually has to run a bit toady. Or, at least, she doesn't get the best trip in the race. It's not that she can't win. It's that you're so wrong about the 'quality' of her trips.

I hope Gio Ponti goes in the Mile... I think he has a legit chance against Goldikova.

The Mile is going to be the most interesting race on the card.
