money

Hi Terry

Without knowing anything about the connections for her I would take a guess,
that this is a small barn ?. She took forever to find the winner circle
against maiden claimers but earned some money with a few in the money finishes. She finally won at a MC 16 routing.
The rule of thumb is a maiden claimer winner probably finds its winning level at 1/2 the maiden claiming level. That would be about a $8000 claimer.
Now after the maiden win what did the connections do with this
still young filly ? They put it against Stater Optional s probably because they wanted to see what she could do. But not risk losing her.
After figuring out how to win this is a test.
That did not go well. They probably realize she is not much. Then they start
her in the claiming races at $20000. After two tries its clear she is not
anything great so now they finally drop her to the CL $8000 level
which is probably her level if she is not hurt ?
