Dashingly: This Kentucky bred daughter of Liam’s Map will be tighter in start #2

Three year old filly for John Shirreffs made her debut in Thursday’s opener, a six and a half furlong dash on the green out of the chute for soph fillies. Off at 14/1 in a field of 10, she made the running from the get go under the veteran Smith and got the lead by the half mile pole under moderate fractions of 23.50 and 46.70 for the half. However, she was hounded every step of the way by a filly on her outside and she never did get a breather. She hung in there gamely until the 1/16 pole, then gave it up grudgingly late to run third, beaten one and a half at the wire. This Kentucky bred daughter of Liam’s Map will be much tighter for start #2 and should be well meant. Shirreffs seldom wins first out but his 2nd time starters do much better.

Generally horses that are on the Horses To Watch list ran into unexpected trouble, bad luck, and/or didn’t run the race we believe Dashingly was cabable of.  We expected that if Dashingly gets a good trip in their next start than we should see an improvement in Dashingly performance figures.  Use the performance figures earned in Dashingly last race (listed above) and compare them to the field and pars of Dashingly next start.  If Dashingly appears to have earned higher performance figures in the last race when running into trouble  as compared to the rest of the field’s expected perfomance in the upcoming race than there is a good chance that Dashingly will dominate the race.
