I remember watching this derby; I had a bunch of friends over, and we were all watching it and celebrating the win, and then we looked at the screen, heard eight belles' name, and everything just went quiet; we were all crying. It was horrible.

This made me cry so hard! I loved this filly so much! She is such an inspiration to me and everything that I am. Her Ruffian and Rachel are the ones that have kept me strong and up and going. I can't thank this filly enough for what she's shown me. RIP Baby girl! I will miss you forever!

She Ran for the love of running, and she died doing what she knew best.
(still....its painful to watch this).
She will most likely be compared to Ruffian (over and over again).
Rest Sweet Belles..you earned it...

I don't know, but she sure does remind me of ruffian.

I was so sad when this happened. Beautiful tribute. I remember watching her sire, Unbridled Song race, and when I saw that his daughter was running the derby, I was so excited, and to have to end like this was awful, just awful. What music did you use? It fits her perfectly.

Thanks for commenting. Yes, I thing everyone was thinking about her yesterday. The music is from the movie "Braveheart".
