I guess shortening her up may put speed back in and improve her late kick.

She wasn't interested in running last time out. She didn't care where the wire was.
That's the one thing that would concern me about going 5 1/2. If there were seven-furlong one-turn turf sprints, I'd say go there, but unless we go to Belmont, it'd be 5 or 5 1/2.
