Good luck, Green Hills. Hope she takes home a nice big paycheck! Be sure to let us know how she did in case we miss her race on TVG.

I'm sure you will. In the case of Coded Princess...it was the luck of the draw with her...I think to tell the truth she really outclassed that crew and we kinda stole the purse. If someone had grabbed her at 25K, they would have gotten a good deal for themselves.

Green Hills, congratulations on an exceptional run by Spotlight. Sorry to see her just get nipped at the wire, but she was very impressive all around. The announcers mentioned that the long stretch run probably was a contributing factor to her very narrow loss. So glad I was able to catch the race and see her run. VERY nice filly! Wishing her many successes ahead.

What a great race, we were able to see it on video. Such a pity she just got caught by the one on the inside. But she is great form and I am sure there is more to come! Best regards,

There was nothing wrong with her run. It's all in the luck of the play.. and the closer had just enough left to drop her to 20% of the purse... but it IS a check, after all. And graded blacktype. There's always the next race.

I would be delighted with a second in an gr 2. The page of my newbie would look a little bit different, beyond that 20% from lets say 75K is better than 20% out of allmost nothing, like in our country.

It actually was 20% of 150,000.

She IS a good filly and we'll see what the future holds for her.
