I'm not saying it was a bad debut. It wasn't. But the fact that she ran (a bit) slower than another first-time starter (Tikkarita), a 2yo claimer (Nina Fever), and a $16k claimer (Go Patrick Go) on the same card may be significant when determining exactly how "impressive" the effort was.

Any firster on Poly needs to be taken with a grain of salt. That goes without saying actually.

Isn't nina fever that borrego filly who ran like her tail was on fire during the spring meet? Also ward right? I can't remember the last race I actually watched so forgive my ignorance...

Yes and yes.

She won her debut at Kee in April by 8 lengths going 4.5f in a pretty fast time.
