    G.O.T. REPORT

    This filly breaks so fast that the jockey'll get whiplash!
    Well, her running gait seems about right.
    Errr... I hope you didn't pay too much for this horse.
    Appears to have plenty left after workouts. Looks good to me.
    Not the most consistent. Has quite a few off-days.
    This filly might show some improvement over jumps.
    This filly wants to get the lead early, from what I've seen.
    Has spunk. May have a competitive edge during real races.
