and what did the P4 pay last year with her and Blame in it?

Do you really want to miss hitting the P4 by missing her leg? I don't

His Classic run was bad. My dream may have put the mush on him.

The field she faced in 2008 was atrocious. Kip Deville was the 2nd choice off an inexplicable 5th place finish in the Woodbine Mile. Whatsthescript was the 3rd choice and was coming in off a 60 day layoff. The rest of the field was highlighted by Shakis, Daytona, and Precious Kitten. The utterly impossible US Ranger was only 17-1.

The 2009 field had a ton of speed and the biggest question was whether she was going to be able to stay as close as she did in 2008 and be successful. Of course, she proved in that race that you can put her anywhere and she'll be fine. With Delegator and Zacinto running so poorly the competition was weak when push came to shove.

Proviso and Sidney's Candy took serious money last year. A filly who had been fortunate to win one time after another against her own sex and a one-time turf winner coming in off a nearly 90 day layoff who had missed his prep. Paco Boy was a horse whose measure she simply had and Gio Ponti was never going to make up the ground Dominguez asked him to that day.

A healthy Courageous Cat, a razor sharp Turallure, and Gio Ponti off his best effort of 2011 prove a formidable threat and that's not even touching on Strong Suit and Byword. This may not be the toughest group she's faced in the BC but it sure as hell isn't the easiest.

Win or lose its great the brothers Chanel have her racing and not producing foals/ Most G1 winners make 4 starts not enter and race in 4 BC's. Now lets all hold hands and sing
