In a fairly non-descript field to start, her main competition, Reneesgotzip, blew the first turn, and Eden's Moon was able to set a relatively unpressured pace through what were the slowest fractions of all two-turn races run at Santa Anita on March 3.
She's got an awesome pedigree (family of Paradise Creek), but Eden's Moon couldn't have had things any easier, and the final margin was more a function of Reneesgotzip giving it through the lane up than Eden's Moon drawing off powerfully. Dynamics are likely to be far different in the Kentucky Oaks; that's why I said she seemed an iffy proposition there.
