Game as always
Second again. Very game.... Never got much of a break as she took the lead after the start and crossed over to the 3 path. Took a little bit out of her to do that. Willie took her back nicely to third behind a couple of long shots and took the lead going into the turn. Opened up a little over the 8 horse but was passed by the 6 horse at the end.... Game effort.

I thought the plan was to rate her?
Is 46 and change fast at AP?

I think
Willie felt compelled to make the move with her to take the lead because the 8 horse looked like she was making a move also. 7F is a tough distance to rate --- much easier at two turns.

looked like he tried to back down the 2nd qtr...maybe waiting a bit longer to retake the lead might have been better

Pretty tough loss, I can't even imagine how heartbreaking that must have been for the crew in Chicago (unfortunately my flight got delayed four hours so I wasn't there with them). She ran great again though and keeps bringing home checks. Hopefully she can bounce back quick and we can get her in one of those interesting spots early in the Saratoga meet.

The first quarter was easy, but they started to pressure her after that and the second quarter was very fast. Willie took back and let Powder River and Lady Eloquence grab the lead, but not quite soon enough, because she still had to zip the second quarter. Not blaming him, he gave her a very good ride, she just seems unlucky.

I know everyone on here loves willie so I wont jockey bash, its very easy to do. I think she gave a huge effort and deserved to win. She wasnt beat by a better horse

man that is a tough one!!
she looked like the easy winner at the top of the stretch... I wonder if Steve knew it is bad luck to be interviewed before the race (according to my horse owner friend John Perrotta).
