And then you have the unknown of Asi Siempre.

It might not be a full field, but each member is distinguished in their own right. And almost anybody could make a case for any one of these mares to win.
I think the Distaff will be a fantastic race this year, I just don't think any of the horses are especially good. I like Pine Island and Balletto for the exacta but they aren't exactly throwing 100+ Beyers up left and right like Gorella, Film Maker, Honey Ryder, Wait a While, and Asi Siempre are in the FM Turf division. My point is we shouldn't be too surprised that the sixth or seventh best horse in the FM Turf division can beat the second or third best horse in the Distaff division on a track that plays to both turf and dirt.

Big difference in a grade 3 and a maiden race.

6-1 on Court Folly? What am I missing? Other than the weight there is nothing to not like here.

I'll take a shot with Court Folly. He has been working well at the slow
and deep training track at Skylight Training Center in Kentucky.

I was wondering where those workouts were coming from.

Nice field...I've been staring at the PP's forever! LOL
