The break absolutely cost her in the Frizette. However, what really hurt her was the slow pace.

Off poorly in 3 races, sure off poorly against state bred maidens tends to mean less. Maybe you should have read the whole thread where I specified (Before the race) that with her tendency to start poorly and having the rail in a 1 mile chute was not a good combo. Instead you just comment for the sake of it as usual.
