I Dreamt I Was

[Fulla Sheets]

From Belmont's 1st race on Sunday, 7/8. I Dreamt I Was' normal running style is to make one run from last, which she did when she won her race prior to this one. In this race, she breaks a length slow, and starts pulling on Dominguez. Sensing a slow pace (26:4), Ramon lets her pull herself to the lead around the turn. They then go 52:1 - 1:17:1. But despite the slow fractions, the race clearly collapses. The first 3 horses after 3/4, were the last 3 horses at the finish.

She looked like a horse that was taken out of her game due to the slow pace, and probably didn't want the extra distance. She went off 5/2 here, so she won't be much of a price next time.
