    • Hardly a secret to the betting public at Fair Grounds, Pretty Sassy (Medaglia d'Oro–Pretty City Dancer, by Tapit) blasted back from a last-out fifth sprinting at Churchill Downs in November to score like a good thing, while stamping herself a TDN Rising Star Sunday. Settled in a stalking third as Queen Jubilee (Authentic) and Ruby's Ghost (Ghostzapper) led them through opening splits of :23.91 and :48.22, the grey sister to 3yo champion filly Pretty Mischievous (Into Mischief) looked like she was itching to go on the far turn but needed the seas to part in front of her. Gaining a slip of daylight turning for home, the even-money choice strode right through and tore down the stretch like her tail was on fire, crossing the wire an easy 7-length winner over her equally-brilliantly bred stablemate Love Song (Ghostzapper-Music Note, by A.P. Indy). Queen Jubilee rounded out the trifecta. Final time for the 8 1/2-furlong test was 1:46.64. Pretty Sassy, out of GI Spinaway Stakes winner Pretty City Dancer, is a half-sister to GI Kentucky Oaks heroine Pretty Mischievous in addition to a full-sister, 3-year-old Ornamental. Godolphin purchased the daughter of Tapit for $3.5 million at the Fasig-Tipton November sale in 2018. Lifetime Record: 2-1-0-0, $38,400. O/B- Godolphin (KY). T-Brendan Walsh.

    • You are quite welcome to post your wacky obsessions on other social media however I see you have given up using X.  Lack of customer interaction perchance?
    • Hand your stake back as a matter of principle.
    • You raise some excellent points...very hard to read with no para's though! Trumpy, Elon & Zacky would be aghast at the locking down of threads here to be fear As for the 'soft' whips' did you read the peer reviewed research by a vet from Sydney Uni that we posted? In the majority of whip strikes the non padded polymer section made contact, often on the highly sensitive flank Why noy pad the whip from handle to tip then? Because trainers/owners/jockeys still feel the need to keep that pain punishment available to them that's why I'm betting Shaun told Stotty 'he's a lazy horse" nek minute Stotty's corkscrewing out of the saddle to produce as much pain as he can muster  flank, ass, flank with illegal over the shoulder punishment Shaun needs to make a choice Does he want the whip banned as he said...or does he want to keep winning at all costs and keep Russ Warwick's owner Hardly Normal happy?  
    • Oh. I just looked. He was and once when winning on my horse!
