Then when the other two fillies came to him, she wanted to keep going, and that's what got her caught in that hot second quarter.
Or at least that's how I saw it.
That's how I saw it too ateam. Natural for any horse to not want them to pass and speed up in the process.

I agree with Danzig. This is the best $500 I have ever spent. I have yet to be able to see her live but I am having a ball. This is one nice filly. We are lucky to have her.

Great post, Paul! This is great for everyone on this board... I was so excited, I could barely stand it and I don't even own a share.

Another game effort by our girl. I was at Suffolk Downs screaming at the screen - must say I had a few others urging her on also and they aren't part of the DT group. Hopefully she comes back sound, eats up and takes a great nap. If all comes back well, we can take solace in keeping her condition and getting a small check.

Looking forward to seeing her and everyone else at Saratoga!
