It was a nice race for a mile from a lightly raced horse.
They ran three 9f routes that day:
Devil May Care went her mile in 1:35.59
Rule went his mile in 1:36.09 on a 2 length lead in the Fla Derby before caving in late.
Unrivalled Belle went her mile in 1:36.25 on a 1.5 length lead
Basically - Switch ran her mile in the same time as Rule did in the Florida Derby .. and she was mixing it up with a pack of pretty good in-form 3yo filly milers like Amen Hall and Christine Daae.
