She looks like the real deal but I hope they don't race her in the NA Cup. There are some serious colts in the 3 year old division this year and I think it is too risky putting her in against them.

I read an article in Standardbred Canada, the trainer Nick Gallucci said her next start will be in the oss gold and than they will make a decision about racing in the NA Cup. He also said pretty much all her starts will be in Canada this year except she's staked to the Lynch Memorial at Pocono. Interesting decision for the ownership and trainer. Try and keep her perfect record by "managing" her schedule or go for the glory of a filly winning that race. She is currently ranked 4th in the road to the NA Cup behind Louprint, Captain Optimistic and Fallout. I think it’s a little early yet to truly see how good this class of 3 year olds are. If it was me and I thought the horse had a chance to win I'd go for it.. once in a lifetime opportunity.

The 3 year old colt pacing division is LOADED this year. It is not too early to know that. Burke just qualified two of his sub 1:50 last week.

Not sure what the downside is to racing against the boys in the NA Cup. She’s owned by her breeder who will breed her and race her foals. He’s not selling any. That doesn’t need the money if she gets beat she gets to go back and race against the girls,

That is kind of my point. Most of the top 3 year olds have only qualified or only have 1 or 2 starts tops. I agree it should be a very good crop this year, but being good as a 2 year old doesn't always translate to being a good 3 year old. Burke had 5 or 6 really good 2 year olds last year, most of which will be racing this weekend at Scioto or Philly.

Fabulous filly.  Needed her last start for certain.  Was running out of gas nearing the wire.  Should be better this week.  Would be competitive against top colts.  But should dominate against fillies until/unless another one really steps up.  If she were mine, I'd keep her in strictly 3YO filly company all year.  If all goes well, consider tackling the boys next year.

she will get destroyed against the boys.she has benefitted from being coddled against a weak canadian sired group of fillies. she really hasnt been tested

She didn’t look that great in her first win.  A win in the NA Cup would be a very erotic achievement but I don’t think she can do it

If she dominates in this GOLD. Why not? Though I'm being warned of a good group
of 3yr old to have to beat. Fan Hanover in the JUG. It can be done. ;D

It's not loaded in the Ontario Sire Stakes. When she faces tougher competition, we'll find out how good she really is.
