WOW! What a tremendous stroke of luck to purchase her before she was born!

I can see why, even though it's sad that she is retired, everyone is happy that she went out in the glory that will be hard pressed to be repeated!

Great story! TY for sharing Alassë!

Cool story!

Er, I don't know much about horse racing -- is winning a horse race by one-and-a-half lengths a big distance?

She came from near the back of the field to take the win...so yep its a good distance
