How does she win? Isnt the winner one from the Ballerina? Those mares always fire, they just always run hard.. hard to beat them all at their game out of the box

I certainly couldn't cross off Vale Dori from winning the F&M Sprint. You know she'd get a good trip from probably just off the pace or maybe stalking, and she's got a ton of class.

You think the Ballerina was a particularly strong race?

I know I don't.

Are you talking about the Ballerina that went 24.05 and 47.81?

And on another note, I think Solomini is OK. I think he can turn the tables on Bolt as the distances increase.

Yet just a few days ago you posted....

I guess that was before you knew who trained him?

It was pre the Frontrunner. I totally missed his maiden win. That's very rare for me. I scan Cali daily for Baffert horses. I just missed this guy. I like his last race a lot. You of all people know that wide pressing trip never works.

Hardly ever. Especially 2nd career start vs a more seasoned good horse.

It should. I never go Gaga over a horse and you know that. This horse is solid and will crush the field if healthy. If you think Solomini can beat him good luck Joey my friend

Been working sparingly to say the least since her last start. After a couple of quick turnaround breezes after the Clement Hirsch, she's had 3 weeks then 2 weeks and now another 2 weeks between breezes with nothing since 09/20.

Plus despite what he's doing with his other BC contenders, it seemed odd that Baffert would skip easy pickings in the Zenyatta with her.
