RE: The Juv
Anyone know what happened to Sargent Seattle? He won the 2nd race at Saratoga this year and then scaratched out of a stake a few weeks later. I know Steve mentioned a pending sale...any update?

There is a ton of speed in the Juv Fillies......
That race has all the makings of a collapse.

I would love her chances if she could relax and make one late run. I'm not sold she will do that however.

Obviously, the fact that she makes mid-race moves to begin with puts her at risk of hanging anyways, but I'd like to see what this filly would do if allowed to blow the race wide open entering the far turn. Certainly has the turn of foot to win this, has a monster pedigree (Affluent was also a granddaughter of the disappointing Bayakoa), and physically looks imposing for a 2yo filly.

Fillies & Mares not "cheap" ?
It seems like in general and this season in particular that speed horses in the Filly and Mare division seem to hold better than the males.
Any thoughts on this? Fillies & Mares have been stepping up in class and distance, and still no one is catching the speed. Where in males a class or distance change seems to leave one more vulnerable. Again - these are only perceptions and I have no stats on this. Still, the Juv-F does have a lot of speed and this is a unique race with a high level of quality. In the average stakes race the fast filly may be so much the class of the field by definition, where here in the BC there are several capable of winning.

If she handles the dirt (i don't see any reason why she shouldn't) she will run a big race at large odds, i imagine.
