Gonna be a huge figure for
Fierceness. 1:35.63 at 1M was 2 seconds faster than the Fillies in the Oaks that ran 8.5F and almost 2 seconds faster than elders that ran 8.5F as well in the Ghostzapper. Looks to be the likely Derby favorite.
Pletcher had another one run yesterday in the 5th in
Mindframe. Firster blitzed 7F in 1:21.72 winning by 13.5 lengths
. Sat 4th early even dropping back to 6 or so lengths back in the 3 path, and launched a sustained dominating move 3 to 4 wide around the entire track walking easily to a win while not ever looking remotely close to being all out. Obviously one to watch going forward.
