just curious as to why you think this is so far fetched andy? aside from the obvious that she's never run on the turf of course.

her work today looked pretty good, not sure if you caught it

Because the dirt race is far more prestigeous and Todd thinking of trying the turf for the first time, instead of the more important race, where she would hardly be a huge price, gives me the impression he has no confidence in her. Much like the lack of confidence he showed in Sidney's Candy when he ran him in the Fourstardave and likely devalued him.

She's got plenty of turf breeding, but you don't run her here unless you've pretty much given up on the dirt. It seems too early for that....but I trust Todd's opinion much more than most.

Anyone know what to make of Misty for Me in the F&M Turf?

They campaigned her at a mile for most of her career. Well beaten at a mile and half first time stretching out. But then smashes Midday in a Grade 1 at a mile and a quarter. Having a tough time judging class when comparing her to the other two euro's and Stacelita.

Was toying with the idea of using him as well. Secret Circle still the likely winner.

I have Secret Circle as an A and Sum of the Parts a C. Thats all Im using in that race. Maybe cover SOTP for 50 cents.

Sloppy track to start the day - already looks like inside might be place to be.

I benefitted from it and I can't believe it myself, I totally agree.
