I saw the pace was fast which I suppose is what helped do the job for her.
I am not gunna lie.She may be best as a one turn filly. I was gunna write about her today,and you would maybe have bet her.I just thought it would be overkill(since I wrote so much about her before her last race,and she did nothing.) I think she deserves Gomez for the Hollywood Starlett.

I hear ya, it's hard to tout a horse a second time after you at least appeared wrong the first time.

I'm not convinced she's that terrific anyhow but the competition isn't either.

Well,I think they need to get a top off- the- pace rider now.They have had 2 guys on her that are just o.k. at bringing horses off the pace,and now it is time for her to get Gomez,Nakatani,or Espinoza.This is not Court's specialty.He is best as a thief up front(as he showed in the 7th race.)Even Kent D. would be a good fit.His best trip is still riding a filly like this.She needs a step up in rider to win her next race.Adequate won't get it done.
