That’s what I heard… no boys this year for Songbird but sounds like they are planning on bringing her back for her four year old year.[/QUOTE]
Here’s hoping!
Nice interview on 8-20-2016 with Mike Smith about Songbird in the Alabama Stakes:

She’s back at Del Mar, working toward the Cotillion, where she’ll undoubtedly stomp the other fillies entered.

Won easily in a canter. Barely broke a sweat in 90+ degree heat.[/QUOTE]
Really amazing race to watch. She did look like she was out for an easy lope, not running a race.
Great news! Once we were worried about her returning to racing and now we can look forward to her in 2017.

Long term goal is the Distaff. Yawn.

Why?

Why?[/QUOTE]
Why yawn? Because there’s no real challenges left for her in the Distaff division, unless there’s a monster coming 3 year old, or Stellar Wind, but how often will they duck each other? I’d love to see her make some starts against males this coming year.
