Any chance it was just a prep for the Mile next month?

yep it most certainly was. positives are that we'll probably get a better price on her winning the mile.. im very relieved as she was just short enough to make me not back her..

When she returned to get unsaddled, the crowd joined in a chorus of "overrated". And if they didn't , they should have.

She's alot of things, but "overrated" is not one of them...

Seen that the U.K. books were pricing her at 4-6 for the BC Mile, running third in a race like this shows she's not on top of her game. I wonder what price she was in that race today.
