You never know I guess....I'll say this though. I had a similar thought about the Carson City filly Ralph Nicks ran yesterday in the Frizette.....she was a Carson City trying to go a mile (which we know is a big stretch for his progeny 99% of the time) but I bet her because she didn't look at all like your typical Carson City horse...she had a lot more scope to her and took more from the Deputy Minister side (the dam) - so I bet her...
...needless to say, when the smoke cleared she proved she was a sprinter regardless of her bulid and was walking the final furlong of the race and ran a horrible third....

Pollard's Vision was by Carson City. He won plenty of times at 1 1/8 miles. I don't konw if he ever won at 1 1/4 miles.
