Didn't compete in the toughest year ever for 3-y-os (by far, considering Rumbo and Jaklin Klugman completed the tri in her Derby), but her accomplishments speak for themselves. Never threw anything resembling her self as a broodmare.

31 in horse years, what is that in human years? For example, one dog year is equal to seven human years.

 

[spnited]

31 horse years would be the equivalent of 31 years.

Horse. It does a body good.

Nice filly. In terms of being a precocious 3-y-o, she wasn't Winning Colors, but she was a real nice filly.

Nice horse, I remember watching her Derby and watching Cordero **** her out of the Preakness. I thought he was a piece of crap beforehand and that reinforced it.
