True - However, Jeff Siegel said the private clockers were raving about her, and I'm sure she was working on the synthetic. I won't give up on her (naturally) - she did break slowly - but she didn't put in any kind of run. I guess we'll see next time out.

What did you think of Rail Trip? I'm in the minority on another board - I love the horse because I love Jump Start -because I just need to see waaaaaaaaay more before I proclaim this horse a star. If he were to be kept sprinting, I can see it. However, how many times have we seen horses blow out allowance fields and then get cut to ribbons when asked to make the step up? His speed scares me as well - I suspect he can't rate and, if that's the case, he will always be susceptible to another speed horse.
