Does DEL not allow stable silks?

46.2......thata boy jeremy

3rd.

Opening half too fast for her to hang on to the lead past 7 furlongs :-(

You mean 46.2 with an uncontested lead, just brutal.

THAT...was not cool

Is she still ours? Seem to come out of it okay?

Track annoucer had her out by 10 lengths at the half mile pole. Geesh. At least it didnt look like he punished her in the stretch.

:22.3 opening quarter pressured by the 99-1 shot was certainly a culprit...

Well, the replay shows her lengths ahead of the 99-1 shot entering the backstretch, and Rose looking back to see where everyone is.

Uh huh. And the opening quarter is around the turn entering the backstretch.

Exactly. Any relay of what the jock was thinking yet?

Yup. No claim. Seemed to come out fine.

Little rest and back to sprinting sounds the plan.

Grabbing a bite and brew with Linda and few gatherers. Linda is very nice host.

bon apetit :)

First half - 46.43
Second half - 54.81

:zz:

Obviously Rose couldn't hold her, I was hoping she would let the 8 go by instead of duel, but unfortunately she beat herself today with the early fractions. I would think cutting back would be to her benefit. Still did well to hold on for 3rd considering the fractions.

Exactly, Steve. That truly was a damned if you do/don't situation for Rose there. He was only going to get a 24 opener with no pressure. He didn't get it easy so his choice then was to let her go a bit or fight her and take everything else out of her.

She ran well and still finished a decent third. If Rose puts his feet on the dashboard and fights her, she beats only the 99-1 shot, IMO.

Following Linda's instructions to let her run.

He certainly did that.

no one complained 2 weeks ago when she ran almost the same fractions and won by seven.

...and yea what's with those silks?
