Good Luck "Team DT"

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!
