![]() I may not want her to win but I'll be fine if she does. At least she got me up at 730a to watch.

![]() Gotta give her the credit now. A nose or 10 lengths, the result is the same. Can't say I walked away feeling like I just saw the best or second best horse in the world or an all-time great sprinter but she got the job done. Maybe it was jockey error that nearly got her beat but her talent overcame him.

![]() Great ride.
More amazingly, a winning streak survived a long plane ride. |

![]() She didn't look her best all week. There was legitimate concern.
Still won. Saved Nolen. |

![]() The obvious question is who would win a matchup between her and Frankel? I think at 6f, she might have a shot. I'd take him though. At 7f, he'd win with ease and at 8f, it would be a massacre.
