It's also curious that if she's top class and going to run at Del Mar, why not run in the Clement Hirsch, a Grade 1 that is open to older horses? The Vanity locally was won in a huge upset by perrennial also-ran Lovethewayyouare, who is probably going out of town for her next start anyways. Ron Ellis's Include Me Out is probably unlikely to waste time on the Polytrack, too, in advance of the BC.

The 3YO fillies in CA this year are historically awful. I'm in no hurry to consider her a contender for the BC Distaff.
Luckily for her sake, Sadler basically finished off Zazu and the chances of Include Me Out pulling a Vision in Gold soon and heading to the sidelines are solid.
