Our nice older mare, Outdone, in a 3-other than turf sprint.
Hoping for a good showing as a tightener for a stakes at the Meadowlands on the 29th.
In at Laurel Thursday

A "three other than" condition means for those horses that are non-winners of three races OTHER than maiden, claiming, starter or hunt meet.
Meaning she's won her first two allowance conditions already.

Came through it fine
Cooled out fast. She only lost by about 6 lengths, so only :01. She's been clipping off 5f at :57 very steadily. The going allowed the front speed to hold up, and since she's really a miler, the closers couldn't close.
She got blocked a bit in the stretch, but there was no catching the leader.
Good freshener after a month off. She's got such heart and doesn't quit, even when she's beaten.
Wendy still wants to try her at the Meadowlands next week. Outie loves the BigM, and night racing under those lights. So it looks like we'll be in at Belmont Friday and the BigM Saturday. Hmmm...can't decide about the BC in between.
