Title: Almond Eye
Post by: Tavasco on May 17, 2020, 01:34:41 AM
A mare who ran a mile and one-quarter in 1:56 and change? OK, it was on turf. Oh and in Japan.

This sensational mare nearly always go into the starting gate @ 1/2 and she did again last night en route to a convincing win in the Victoria Stakes. Even though her previous effort was a non-effort 9th place. Gives one just a little concern when a virtual sure thing has a reason for doubt.

She earned an entry into the Breeders cup if she wants it, Last night, the race had a $2M purse, I believe it was last year that she won the $5m Japan Cup.

Edit - Rats, my rider and horse got stopped on the rain ending in 5th with energy meanwhile a 99/1 horse in 3rd helps the $2,600 tri.

Lastly, prejudice and bias the world over I like an Australian shiipper in the next race the 8th and I\'m getting 63/1. #3 Arrogant? Having fun now.
