Sister Act

[NoChanceToDance]

Soviet Song's sister runs in a maiden at Nottingham tomorrow, the race looks very weak and she is forecast to be 1/2.

She should win.

Poor girl, i hope she is okay.

From the Racing Post

This was a race more interesting for a loser than a winner, given that 2-7 favourite Sister Act - a full sister to Soviet Song - was virtually pulled up when Jamie Spencer believed the filly to have lost her action two furlongs out. She was under pressure at the time having been awkward and free through the early stages but, on the plus side, she was sound on pulling up. Her only previous effort marked her down as a smart prospect, so this was perplexing. Maybe the ground was too quick for her, but she now has a question mark hanging over her.
FIRST BUDDY was left to win what turned out to be a weak maiden in a time faster than Sign Of The Cross recorded in the first division. Gelded since being beaten on his final two starts last year, he wonthis off a mark of 74 and is probably only a fair handicapper, but he has clearly returned in good heart.
Handset was always chasing the winner and will do better over further when speed is less important. Of more long-term interest could be Pivotal Answer, who got outpaced at a crucial stage on her debut before picking up in good fashion in the concluding stages. This was a run that augurs good things for the future.

Poor filly, I hope she's OK.. McEvoy's hot spell continues.

I didn't get to see the race, but many people are saying that Jamie Spencer almost pulled the filly up as an excuse for the poor ride he gave her.

Many are saying she wouldn't have won whatever and apparently she returned to her stables at Nottingham not lame at all.

Very strange.

Hope she's okay.....
