Well, it’s finally here… the last preview for me.  We look at the field for the Coronation Cup, a five-and-a-half-furlong turf sprint for the sophomore fillies and I am going all in on Dont Mind A Dime, today.  I love When Doves Cry, but she has that thing of running well when I skip her, and bad when I’m in her corner, so I’ll give Big Jd Racing a chance and go the other way today… back to Dont Mind A Dime… she’s been tough as nails of late, Winning the China Doll at SA, throwing a dud at KEE, then bouncing back to just miss in the Soaring Softly (GIII) on a wet AQU lawn, then won the Goldwood at MTH, and that was at today’s distance.  She’s certainly not lacking for speed, so let’s see how far that takes her.  I’d probably key her and put a few under in the exacta, but let’s narrow this down and give Sinisoul the second spot.  She’s been facing softer but won the Dye Stakes at TUP before that third in the Seattle Stakes at EMD, last out.  This is her first race over the lawn, but I like the am works over it, so I’ll try to find some value with her.  The Card did put When Doves Cry second, so blame them if it goes wrong.
