Default Whobetterthanus

Very impressive debut winner at Oaklawn today. She broke like an absolute quarter horse -- and won going away late.

http://www1.drf.com/drfPDFChartRaces...=20120301&RN=7

The amazing thing about this filly is how insanely cheaply she sold at auction given her pedigree and the amount of speed she showed in the under-tack work.

Her dam Kumari Continent was the post time favorite in the Kentucky Oaks the year Secret Status won it. She also won the Gr 2 Hollywood Oaks at 9fs later in the year.

Whobetterthanus worked an 1/8th in joint sales fastest 10.20 at the Fasig Tipton TIM 2yo sale.

The dam was a post time Ky Oaks favorite and a router, the filly worked a bullet in the under-tack show, and she only sold for 52K!! She's got to be one horribly looking horse with poor confirmation.

Whobetterthanus, like Zenyatta, is out of a Kris S. mare. There's no Street Cry on the top of her pedigree but it could be fun to see if she can stretch out.

Whobetterthanus's final time of 1:10.41 was 0.74 seconds faster than an Opt45K/N2X Alw race for older males (88 Beyer par for that class level) at the same distance two races earlier.
