Well Better Than Honour has given up the last two Belmont winners. She has another colt this year. Casino Drive a 2y old by Mineshaft. Could she do it again? Could she be a "blue hen" mare?

Casino Drive is a 3/4 brother to Rag's, and from all accounts, Mineshaft might be the next superstar in the barn

Well obviously the odds of that happening are pretty slim........but given that pedigree, I would say there is a better chance that young Casino Drive is effective at long distances than your average 2yo.

I believe the colt was also bought by someone in Japan.

You could count on 1 hand how many filly's were as talented as she was.. But she didn't last so I can never consider her as an all time greats..

Chuck 15 years ago was the technology advanced enough to diagnose R2R's current issue. Or would she have just been raced and gotten over your problem thru time and overcome her hairline fracture?

I definitely agree there. Super talented filly.

I haven't seen too many Mineshafts so far that I really, really like, but Casino Drive can certainly run.

Doesn't Abe's first 2yo post signal the beginning of spring? I'm anxiously awaiting it while watching the snow come down.
