Clear trip. She was merely hand-ridden but a top class 7f young female should have been a lot more impressive with similar handling.
I'm not exactly sure how much more she could have done given the circumstances. I wouldn't be negative about the race, at least she proved she could get out of the gate effectively today.

I think she's going to have to prove that she's better routing...which she very well might be.

A filly with My Miss Areilua type ability at 7fs would have left those easily and won under far more restraint.
