Can’t wait for Glimmer to weigh in on this one.
WoW!
Is it possible to watch her without getting:cool: emotional?
Rebeginner and I drank champagne in anticipation of RA’s win, and glad we did! Got to see the race live on TVG. Such an amazing filly, a fabulous race… so great for racing. She seems to be doing very well physically.
Whether she runs in the BC or not, she is definitely FOTY and should be HOTY, just an amazing animal. She’s a beast, and I mean that in the best sense of the word. Just truly incredible to watch.

No.
We were clapping and hooting and hollering and toasting and cheering, all while being alittle teary-eyed. I would easily buy a last minute ticket to watch her next race, wherever it is…
WOW !!! WHAT A WOMAN !!! She is truly SOMETHING SPECIAL!!!
I loved
the girls holding the signs that said…yeah, I run like a girl…
gotta love it benefited breast cancer…
Go RA!!! She is poetry in motion…

Since the inception of the breeders cup- has a horse ever been HOTY without at least showing up?[/QUOTE]
Mineshaft in '03.

Thanks, War Admiral!yep, it’s on YouTube…:yes:[/QUOTE]
You’re welcome…
Now: dare I confess there WERE dry eyes here? She ran an excellent race, and I’m delighted for Mr. Jackson but… the hype is getting to me. The second coming of Secretariat she is NOT. And IMO Zenyatta may be just a hair better, but I guess we’ll have to wait and see!
How much purse money has she earned over her career? Is she anywhere close to being the all time female money earner (which I guess is Azeri)?
Caitlin
Current earnings of $2,498,354. She has a bit to go in order to catch Azeri, who won over $5 mil!
Nope…wow
Wow. I love watching her run!
She certainly has proved herself time and time again.
Absolutely.Freaking.Awesome.
I agree - AWESOME!!! I sat there with a mix of emotions going through me. Excited to see her run again, joy at her composure, strength, beauty and awesomeness, but I did watch with a certain sense of trepidation. The fear of the unknown.
She is such freaking amazing…
I love how she looked after the race…
Like she’d just been for a weekend mosey through the park! heh.
She’s freaking magic.
It brought a tear to my eye and that only happens when I watch the best run!!!
future plans
I wonder, and this is very fanciful, if since JJ has already made his preference known to NOT run on the synthetics, could he send the Princess to The Arc? I think it is 1 and 1/2 miles which might be a problem, for most any American runner. The Euros are definately bred to run further
