I hope you're just being a wiseguy and that's not how YOU judge the quality of a race....any race. It actually is a live race ( and not because a distant finisher has won twice since ).

So, one of the ways I'd consider the quality of a race wouldn't be in terms of how the horses in it ran back? Wouldn't that be a qualitative counterpart to the number? Especially since the horse that drew off on the turn in that race and had a clear lead turning for home has proven to be a quitter ---even going six.

I'm all for talking about more races and stuff, but it really helps if people actually have a real opinion and discuss it, instead of just mentioning nearly the entire field.
I'll take Fischer off IGGY next time there's a MATCH RACE and I need to narrow down the contenders to ONLY 2. Oh wait; that would probably be much too difficult for him and he'd need to enlist the aid of his equally discerning buddy Keilan.

1) A Rose For You
2) Song Of Love
3) Better Again

I'm thinking Charming is not ready for this kind of race and I have my doubts about Music Note as well.

i agree that this is a real nice field for n1x on a thursday.

While the duelers ran last and next to last, it's hard to say for sure whether she got a perfect trip or was compromised by being close early. And, should she find herself in the lead close to the wire again today, she might just know how to finish.

Tough race with no real value.

They said Music Note got sick in Quarantine and never went to Dubai.

Charming looks less built like a sprinter in the paddock , then on the kenne rplay.

I still think Charming's a play-against at 2-1. She might be the real deal, but her debut win was eh.

I still think she is the most likely winner but 2-1 is no bargain. Song of Love at 9-2 is the value if the odds don't move.

Not much value on Music Note, but clearly much the best. She's got some turn of foot.
