You just have to hit it a couple of times, but I believe it's a good bet.

She's a lock to have a better finishing position against Rachel than she did in the Ky Oaks.

Didn't they treat her with steroids after her last race when she overheated? Will she have to wait 30 or 60 days for it to be out of her system?

At least she will finish a lot less further back than 40 lengths as she did in the Oaks.

I did not even consider Gabbys Golden Gal in her last race. I could not really think she would have turned a total 180 after losing her previous by 40 lengths

I imagine the Acorn winner's next start will be either the Prioress or the Test.

Flashing, a Pletcher horse who's name escapes me, and very possibly Don't Forget Gil are lined up as competition as of now.

I guess you still have a problem with Jess running her in this spot? If she jogs do you want her to continue crushing filly's? Do you want to see her in the Coaching Club and Alabama?
