What the Nation is saying about Immortal Verse Kicks Clear in Coronation...

Huge prop's to Bobby Flay for being willing to ship B.C.Juvenile Fillies Turf champion, More Than Real, across the Atlantic to Royal-Ascot to run in the G1 Coronation Stakes. Most American owners wouldn't dream of doing it. That said, Flay really asking a tall order of this talented filly to go into Ascot against many of the better 3yr.old turf fillies in Europe off of an 8 month lay-off, and very lightly raced.
