See whata beautiful and POWERFUL daughter he made :) He was the best horse that ever lived. And no other horses will ever beat him or be the greater than him.
What a great race! She's really was poetry in motion. However (and please don't flame me because I don't know who he is) the commentator really distracted me during this race. He sounded more like an auctioneer than a race caller.
What a monster she was the year leading up to her Horse of the Year honor. One of the best fillies to hit the track. It was long wait for another filly(Azeri) to win HOTY honors after All Along and Lady's Secret.
CF---call her the ALPHA female...She took it to the boyz and let them have it...she really hated being behind like her dad...I love that she won the one that Daddy lost...Here is to you Daddy.....
cf, just left this comment for John. The virus... new detail info, I just read in Lawrence Scanlan's new book, The Horse God Built, that Turcotte begged Lucien not to race him, and Lucien said he would get someone else if he, T, didn't ride him ! Author speculated whether Laurin thought even a sick Secretariat could beat his competition.
Boy one just doesn't see sloppy tracks like that anymore.

A name you don't see that often any more. She's an amazing horse--the Blood Horse Top 100 did not do her justice.

It's neat how she got a measure of redemption for her Papa.
What an awesome performance in the muck.
Have a nice day.

Hi. You're most welcome.
You couldn't be more right, pleasure is the EXACT feeling watching this and other choice races.
Thanks for watching and have a great day!

She didn't even notice the colts. You'd think she was alone on that track!
The only thing those colts could do about it was to avoid eating too much dirt.
She took 'em on and won hands down!
Thanks for this vid!!!
