In that Pocahontas Stakes, I tried to evaluate the performance of Girl Daddy and Crazy Beautiful, but I had them close enough to each other that I couldn't separate who actually did the most running. The paper pace was a bit fast (against Girl Daddy), but Girl Daddy seemed to have better position, and Crazy Beautiful had poor position, and closed by herself in order to try to get into contention.
Leaning towards Girl Daddy having room to improve, and I like her works(at least 'on paper' w/out seeing them on video), and Crazy Beautiful seems like the 2nd string of her barns entries in the BC to Simply Ravishing. Simply Ravishing probably deserves some respect.
Biggest question with Girl Daddy would be how she runs when she doesn't have the upper-hand. I haven't seen that yet. Sometimes the performance doesn't translate straight into an adverse scenario. That's my worry. But if it does, it seems like she can stalk and try to get decent position, and maybe get a piece.
Would also prefer she breaks a little better.
