My thoughts exactly. She'll be missed.

Deserved a good retirement...very well earned...her 2009 title was a bit controversial nonetheless.

But if the big Z scores this year..would you call it a win-win finale ?

Talk about a mis=managed horse. Too many 3 year old races, back to race when out of shape as a four year old, and pushed to five races when she was obviously through.

Nothing against the filly. She is a great horse, but money doesn't buy good sense.
