I don't know that there is another filly in the country in the same class as this girl. And I don't just mean among the 3yo's.
I doubt Headley would go for the Oaks now but I find it very interesting to hear him say that she's definitely NOT a sprinter. He says:
“Her forte is a distance,’ he said. “She’s sprinting because she’s just a runner. When she starts going around two turns, you’ll really she something.. I would have to say because of her workouts, none of my standout fillies ever worked like she did. . .not even Kalookan Queen worked that fast.”
If he's right when he says that's when we'll really see something, this is about as exciting a filly as I've ever seen.
