But Trainer Trotsek is a persistent pessimist. "This game is made up of 'shoulda,' 'coulda' and 'woulda,'" he says glumly. "Who knows? A better filly might come along." Sure, Harry-next year. Owners Hancock and Perry are watching the progress of a little bay yearling whose parents' names are Nantallah and Rough Shod...
