No doubt it was a good ride yesterday, but I still think it was more the benefit of a crappy ride by Jara who was stretching a filly from a 5 furlong debut to 6.5 furlongs and still felt the need to run the 1st quarter in :21.8 and the half in :45 flat. I think Jara clearly had enough horse where he could have let some of the inside speed take off and sit right off them and let them do all the work early....but what the heck do I know?
