In the SA race she never ran a step and considering she came into the race off of a 7 week layoff he was telling you something.

She had some physical issues and if you notice that after each campaign she didnt run again for 6 months which is out of character for a Jerkens horse.

I dont listen to that Smith guy, theres better info than what some jockey has to say.
