This is a joke, right? Abel Tasman was throttled down to a light canter by the time Rayya "passed" her, a full 2 furlongs after completing the actual work.
Again, Abel Tasman was under mild encouragement in the work, Rayya was being set down to keep pace.

she is about half her size,

So now she gets a pass because she's tiny?

and if that work was any other 3yo Oaks bound filly, I'm thinking you wouldn't be insisting on proving me wrong about its quality, or at least you wouldn't if it wasn't me...since it's me, of course you would.

Huh? I just finished the first season of Westworld and still don't have any idea of what you are talking about...

Clearly, Tiz Wonderful had physical problems, had he not, he may have proved a decent racehorse, or not, we'll never know.

But we do know he's not an important sire.

Regarding his only having sired few sprint fillies...whelp, he finally got him a stayer.

Its pretty easy to be in the anti-Mendelssohn camp here. Bravo. Big limb you're one there.

Who said I was anti-Mendelssohn? I'm more in the anti-Mendelssohn-is-the-second-coming-as-a-result-of-thrashing-wee-filly-Rayya-on-a-souped-up-surface camp.

90% of you are anti-Mendelssohn, and in a way exactly like LoneF is anti-Justify. If Mendelsohn loses, I really don't care. But if Justify loses, you guys are going to melt down. You are all so emotionally invested in him.
|
90% of me is anti-Mendelssohn? What are you, my head programmer? What does the other 10% of me think? Certainly not pro-Justify...

I'm cedeing the last word to you henceforth, regardless of topic, I know your response.

While I'm out on a limb, it seems like the bough broke under you.
Rock-a-bye.
