I wouldn't be too quick to assume it was the extra turn, and not the quirky, front end biased Keeneland surface that caused the poor performance. But that was quite impressive yesterday.

She looked really comfortable... Will ask Baker this morning what his thoughts/plans are.

Baker: "Alcibiades not a fair read on her two turn ability. Increasingly agitated in paddock and edgy into gate. Mind not on job. Slow start... race was over early. Will certainly try 2 turns again, just not sure how quickly."

Thankfully, you got him in the first hour so I was able to listen to the interview.

I can't think of any Johar progeny who have had success on the main track, so for the winter in Florida I would think she would be on the turf, although I can't think of any other Johar's who have had success sprinting either. Perhaps she is a freak?

She does have superior genetics on the damside of the pedigree.
