Default another nice 3yo filly

Did anyone see glorified win yesterday in the 8th at hp?

that was about as geared down a performance by a horse i've ever seen, at least late in the race anyways.

there are some people though who will say that when a horse is geared down, they are actually running faster than when they are in an all out drive and being whipped. so maybe she wasnt so impressive after all.

one thing i'd like to see off this race though is her beyer. because her final time (and last 1/16th) were so glacially slow, i expect her # to come back pretty low, which will be a good thing for betting her next time, which i think is some stakes at belmont.

yeah, as i predicted, her bsf would come back ridiculously low.

if they ship her to ny for her next start, i think she will end up being underbet because of that low figure.

i havent seen much on the east coast this year in the 3yo filly ranks, so i think she will have good value.

i seriously doubt that the 117.1 or so she ran the 6.5 furlongs in is really indicative of her ability.

I like slow and ordinary, but if you prefer moderate then that is ok as well

She ran about 12 lengths slower than the Roger Stein trained older male Gotaghostofachance did earlier in the day.

Like you say, she got a soft trip, and she will be overbet off this race, based on the fact she won so stylishly from a visual standpoint.
