I don't think the fractions were slow. Not blistering but fair in all likelihood.

Not that she's up against much at this point, but I think It's Tricky is the best 3YO filly in the country.

It speaks to what a quality horse she is that she's been this good this soon considering her pedigree. Her dam, Catboat, started for a tag as a maiden four times before breaking it at Mountaineer. She rattled off four in a row from there and finished in a dead heat in the Arlington Oaks after finishing second in the Sweetest Chant at AP.

I think the 6 furlong fraction was 1:14, but to be fair, I don't know what the fractions of the other 2 turn races were

Betsy, the 6F fraction does not represent the pace.

Oops, you're right. Then I would say the fractions were not terribly slow - I think the half was run in 48 and change. The 2nd quarter was slow, I think - 25 and change? I have to watch the race again.

I watched the entire card. Compared to everything else the race was not slow at all. Andy is spot on, not really fast, but fast enough.
