Royal Delta

Seriously ridiculous debut winner in the town of Elmont Saturday.

And some kind of bred.

wow..the 3 horse
[YT="royal delta"]tRj2_cQSPsg[/YT]

equibase wrote a very long race summary

ROYAL DELTA away in good order, was allowed to settle into stride down the backstretch, was guided into the three path departing the half mile pole, galloped into contention, displaying a touch of greenness in the process, encountered a wall of rivals spread out four deep, reacted kindly to the solid hold put to her by the rider, bided time behind the traffic, dove to a newly-created opening along the four path coming to the five-sixteenths pole, was forced to swing out an additional path turning for home, cruised to the front, being asked for the barest amount of speed, then proceeded to draw off to an authoritative victory while being ridden out to the finish line.

She ran a decent race but the others ran brutally-- slow early, slow middle, slow late-- so I wouldn't make too much out of it.

That is a concise description of her race. Whoever calls charts in New York is a professional. It is very hard to find quality information like this anywhere about anything. You certainly won't find it in the New York Times or any other paper about the world we live in. This only exists at the racetrack.

She runs like Lava Man or Pine Island with her head down like an anteater. Those were two great horses so that was a compliment. As far as her next race I have a prediction. Durkin's hysterics will lead to her getting bet down to 6-5 in the Demoiselle and she will not win.

And her off-the-pace running style seemed to have all the best of it Saturday on Belmont's main track.

That said, it's mighty rare to see a 2YO maiden filly run the last quarter of a one-mile race in 24-flat, even under such favourable circumstances.

Royal Delta

She's on my Stable mail as THE filly to follow.

I'm thinking the owners are already receiving million dollar + offers.


Regardless of her competition, she glided home with very lettle
help from her jock....

Wonder if Todd Pletcher will be training. Either way, should have a My Flag-type 4yo season.

The pedigree is very deep. They weren't simply paying for her as a racehorse. 2 other relatives from that family went for 7 figures during the same session.

I love how people get so defensive on here.


I was referring to your comment about them not buying here simply as a racehorse
