I'm sure she wins by a pole next out, at about 3-5. The winner could be a neat little sprinter though. Her first race was pretty good, as she had a tough trip, and ran second to the Rusty Arnold firster, by Storm Cat out of Victory Ride, I can't remember her name. I also know Imperial Reign scratched a few weeks back, so she might just have been a little short here.
Yes, you are exactly right. She should win easily next time but will probably be 3-5 or so.

As you said, she was entered on July 27th and she scratched that day. She had a little gap in her works before that. I wouldn't be surprised if she was sick for a few day or something like that. She could have been a little short today.

If Gomez wins, anyone on Ace could have done it. If Gomez loses, rider's error. The guy may not be the smartest jock, but how can one not see how talented he is. So in any race he is dangerous. You just count discount him.

in Baseball the best hitters fail to reach base around 2/3 of the time.
