Best Race mare ever

[wilf]

Makybe Diva is certainly the most outstanding turf runner many of her phenomenal wins were against the best colts around ,3 Melbourne Cups,Cox Plate ,etc,etc . She has been retired only 3 years and yet memories fade so fast in this sport,shame really!

I'm with you there....out of sight -out of mind....

Dahlia and All Along come to mind.

I will give some love to Imp, Busher, Beldame, Miss Woodford, Princess Doreen, Bewitch, Twilight Tear, Lady's Secret and Gallorette.
Across the pond there is Zarkava, and our modern great Goldikova.
Then Down under there was Makybe Diva and Sunline.

We haven't seen any real aggressive vs males in American racing since last year with Rachel and even her campaign was tame compared to these gals.
Just sayin.

I immediately thought of Kincsem, too, Gearge. It says here on her pedigree blurb that six of her races were won in walkovers as nobody else bothered to show up. I read somewhere else a while back that she did all that winning while being hauled all over Europe on trains.

I never heard of this mare; how do I find out about her?

Thanks. She just gained a new fan.

I think Ouija Board (GB) could be mentioned in the same sentence with any of them as she won 7 Group I's including two wins and a second in the Breeders' Cup. Maybe she's not quite as good as Queen Z; Goldikova; Ruffian; etc....but she certainly deserves to be mentioned with them.
