    I love Aubby K. But 6 horses? That is a 5 and two 6 horse fields. How do you make money on these races?

    For 300K you would think more than six horses would be entered.

    Zo Impressive, Aubby K, and On Fire Baby probably scared a few away, but I think the other 3yr old filly race in NY in a few weeks took a couple away.

    Zo Impressive, Aubby K, Contested for me in that order.
    Suni, Soto, Sham, whichever.

    Best race of the day coming up in my opinion. We will see if the Track record may be in trouble in the Met Mile by how fast these fillies go the mile here. I could see these going under 134.

    Aubby K 133 2/5

    Contested won this easily.

    Re: Acorn Stakes (G1)

    Wow, Contested very impressive by 5.5 lengths!!

    On Fire Baby surprisingly 4th, she was disappointing.

    Race was over out of the gate. That filly is fast.

    Expected better from Zo and Aubby, certainly. Ah well, they're still both nice fillies.
    Suni, Soto, Sham, whichever.

    Better? She ran exceptionally. That was the best race of Zo Impressive's career by about 5+ lengths.
    Well there's lots of smart ideas in books I've never read, when the girls come talk to me I wish to hell I had

    They are nice. The winner is a monster. It will be interesting to compare her time to Met Mile winner. Bet it is pretty close.

    Agreed. I wasn't entirely convinced of Contested after her last, but this was certainly enough to do it.
