The return of Declan's Moon is almost as exciting as Buddy Gil's '06 comeback.

For all the talk about overrated horses that has happened here, I imagine these two are pretty good possibilities.

Go to Calracing.com, and watch her break her maiden at Santa Anita a year ago. It was monstrous! She was so much bigger than all of the other horses in the field as well... She must have gone to another country and had some time off because I haven't seen her for a year....

She was purchased by Darley for 3 million after her maiden victory.

I see what you mean.. She really looks like she could have been anything.. Wonder what happend to her to make it take almost two years to come back. She looks like she was fine in the race... Hopefully she will not have missed a beat and will pick up where she left off.

She was with Godolphin last year and taken out of training due to injury.

Or, No Chance will tell you that they ruined her.

Nice to see her back anyway.

edit - oh yeah, good luck to Diamond Fury.
