The classiest mare I ever saw. The call of the Breeders Cup Distaff final 1/16th stretch is still one of my ringtones.

anyone who was a fan of this great horse knew that this time was drawing near. sadly, none of them last forever. i saw earlier that she had passed, but i shoved the news away til i got home. those of us who had the distinct pleasure in watching her run got to see an incredibly rare sight-i know i enjoyed every one of her races as she achieved perfection. her distaff win over winning colors was one of the best races ever, with an awesome finish by a horse who simply refused to lose. then, she added to her amazing race record by becoming a fantastic broodmare. thankfully she left a living legacy behind, and her descendants will carry on that lineage. anyone looking for another like her most likely will never find one.

not only was her distaff win amazing, she had to close that gap in the slop. imagine, a time when they did not care about the weather. it was part of the game, breeders cup or not. they just don't breed them like they used to. half of the jugheads today would of had to scratch their horse or be making excuses after the fact. or they want to run at same place every year, to avoid getting wet....go figure http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oILJ6IYoZso Last edited by johnny pinwheel : 04-09-2010 at 07:51 PM.

Her racetrack accomplishments were obviously excellent, and it is also cool that unlike many champions she had a nice breeding career as well (broodmare of the year one year I believe). She was always one of my favorites.

Super post. I only saw her run on television. But, I did tune in when I knew she would be there. 26 seems so young for A Champion. Even in horse years.
