Saber had a good start and first 2 turns. She started getting tired about 650 yards in. There was significant increase in her trying to explore things other than the track. The scent pads would bring her back in. Water usually helps her refocus and get back in the game, but this time it really didn't. She really struggled on the last turn but got it done. About 5-10 yards before the end she was ready to quit and started eating grass. I gave her an assist and encouraged her to keep going. At the end she got rewarded at the article and then her squeaky ball a few more yards.
