I'm sure they took that into consideration.

It's more about Mott hearing that PG1985 liked her.

Looking at PPs for Oaks contenders....Nothing but 1s and 2s for just about every horse at every call. 10w going into the first turn?!

I'm of the opinion that the fastest horse should and typically does win a race but it's hard to ignore the pace scenario here. It is possible that everyone tries to rate and a horse like Beholder is able to get a rather easy lead....

If the race were to collapse is Unlimited Budget the most likely beneficiary? That's my initial thought.

Wouldn't Pure Fun be the one to pick them up if it does collapse?

She has run a very unconventional campaign this year but is certainly talented. She should get a dream set up and will be a huge price. Maybe she isn't the same horse she was at two but I am intrigued.
