These races are crapshoots. I may take a swing with Pretty Prolific, at a price.

If Doremifasollatido is close to her 8-1 morning line, which I am sure she won't be (right Andy?), I'm taking a big swing.

I bet Simplify in her first stakes try and thought she could have been ridden more aggressively, she ran an encouraging race behind Garden District. She'll probably be the third choice today at around 4-1. At that price I like her today.

The third finisher will easily prove the best of this bunch.

I'm not saying that I disagree, but just out of curiosity, what makes you say that? True, that was a nice run she put in down the stretch today after a stumble at the start, and both the debut race and the pedigree are certainly nice....but what makes you so confident that she'll end up better than today's winner?
From what we have seen from Mani Bhavan so far, is there really very much to knock?

I see that she stumbled at the start, was moved to the rail where she made up some ground, then bounced to the outside and put in a good late run. I'm not trying to dispute that she is a promising filly or that she had a bit of a trip in the race, but I was just trying to figure out why btw would say that she will "easily prove the best of this bunch."
Both her and the winner now have two lifetime starts. Based on those races, I know that I personally don't see a reason to be COMPLETELY convinced that Pretty Profilic is definitely going to be better than Mani Bhavan. She very well could be, I'm just wondering why all of you guys are so convinced of it based on one race where the "other" horse won so easily.
