she showed a new side today. went into the air a bit at the start, and last early. she wouldn't give up, and managed to catch alina. very nice.

[ArlJim78]

i thought Alina might be dangerous with the field being so small. Eight Belles had to earn that one.

[Danzig]

first fight she's had in a while, nice to see her dig in and keep trying. i enjoyed that one immensely!

oaks chalk ?

[Danzig]

yeah, if she goes in the oaks.

Ramon had a big time hold on her down the backside. With the slow fractions going into the far turn I thought he'd let her run alittle more turning for home. The filly on the lead hit another gear and they all took off the wire.

We were on the rail at the finish line when they came by and I couldn't tell if Ramon pulled her head to the right to keep her from veering in or if she took a look at the crowd just before she hit the wire. I think we've got some pretty good pics from the race. I will post if they turned out OK...

what are you saying ?
and if your saying, what i think your saying...
what are her odds, there ? in between 15 and 20 -1

i think with the boys being as lackluster as they've been, that there is a very real chance she could go in the derby. i doubt rick porter put up the 6k just for fun.
