Comebacker may have been prepping in this sprint as both of her wins have been routes. She was asked for early speed and was hustled out aggressively by her jock. The filly was able to set the pace with three other runners pressing her up the backstretch, but she was caught entering the stretch and […]
A change of tactics were used here as the filly sat in midpack early. Her jock is not exactly the strongest of riders, but she did well to run on late to finish 3rd and maybe she is best as a laterunner. If so, then maybe she can graduate in her next start especially with […]
