The Distaff looks like a real opportunity to get some value. Fillies like Questing and In Lingerie will be double digit odds with the top three taking probably 50% of the pool.
If this were the synthetic Breeders' Cup, I'd love In Lingerie.

God I hope Questing is double digit odds in the Breeders Cup.

Same here. . . I don't think it's happening, but that would be insane.

I'm not greedy--I'll take 6-1.

Looks like they'll consider the F&M Turf for her..

Meanwhile, another 3-year-old filly, In Lingerie, could make an appearance in the Filly and Mare Turf, despite not having raced on the grass. Winner of last Saturday’s Grade 1 Spinster at Keeneland, she is a multiple winner on Polytrack, a surface on which some turf horses show an affinity.

Aron Wellman of Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners, the partnership that co-owns the filly with Gary Barber, said they are keeping the Filly and Mare Turf under consideration, along with the Ladies’ Classic.

She was shipped from Keeneland to Santa Anita on Tuesday and is preparing for the Breeders’ Cup, with her specific Breeders’ Cup race to be determined in the weeks ahead. She could be cross-entered in both races, Wellman said.

I was figuring that the undefeated My Miss Aurelia would be in the group with Awesome Feathers and Royal Delta eating up 50% of the betting pool. I recognize that she did have a 7 pound allowance in the Cotillion but it was only her second start in almost 11 months and clearly Assmussen's target is the BC. I always have to look hard at undefeated runners who get ignored because they are thought to be too slow.

I am going to spread in the multi race bets but the bets on this race individually will need to be dicated by value on the tote.

My Miss Aurelia has quite a large fanbase. I'd be surprised if her odds creeped up above Questing, especially now that she defeated Questing.

It's hard to think of examples when undefeated horses are ignored. Normally, an undefeated horse is the only factor that can overshadow horses with high Beyer Speed Figures.

Intriguing. . . she's definitely bred for a dirt route.
