Abit short on the dam side I guess that's a gamble. Interestingly the dam side of this horse ran in the upcoming Grade 3 Three Troikas Stakes.

True to Life granddam is Circle of Life who ran third in the July. Her 4th dam is July winner Tecla Bluff.

Teclafields her 3rd dam, I think was given to Robin Bruss for his broodmare band. Teclafields produced Met winner Zebra Crossing.

Interestingly, True To Life, does not same to stay.

thanks for the info... I've also seen that one swallow does not make a summer...it may just have been a bit of an off day, or the opposition was just too good, and then they keep it to the shorter distances...has happened many times before...a change of stables...and then it may blossom...( I'm not saying this is the case, just that it is possible)...I love the speculation...

R2 ...Any opinions on Winter with Jo ?

howzit all

whatever happens , the first four races will be very interesting so play with caution

really trappy looking card with lots of possibilities and what ifs

i fancy DANCE CLASS , PHINDA MZALA , CHIMICHURI RUN and SHAH AKBAR

enjoy stay safe and have a good one:)
