Penna's horses take a lot of money but yeah, she should be a decent price. If the chart caller actually wanted to assess the trip last time out the comment would say, "Shitty ride."

Well, I'm sure the chosen rider change will solve that problem.

This is also a MUCH tougher spot.

The only thing she has going for her, and this is after just a lengthy glance at the race, is that she has the speed to stay close and there's very little speed in the race.

It's 1/5 that Prado buries her on the inside and she never sees the light of day.

Agreed. . . can't decide if she's good enough.

She feels like a horse you almost hope gets beaten reasonably badly, with the expected no shot trip Nick described, and then she gets in a more reasonable spot upstate. At least we know 5 1/2 won't be a problem.
