None of this precludes Round Pond from being a very nice filly. It just means her on-track performances belie her reputation. The simple fact is she has never run an even remotely special race. She's run pretty well a few times. Perhaps her physical issues have kept her from showing more. I hope we find out that is the case this year.

Did you see her win the Acorn, what about the Azeri (which was considered the race of the year by many), or even the Distaff....this has nothing to do with RPH or Hard Spun...my interest is from a totally different perspective from which I think you are pointing towards....Round Pond is a very special horse that has run some very special races....
