Like I said earlier...you were still in diapers.

Kiri came along, as usual, to bail you hopeless cases out.

Yeah, Canaveral won by a pole, I think, in his debut. As I recall his career ended shortly thereafter.

Where did I say colt?

Of course I meant Heavenly Prize.

When someone says debut I assume debut means first start ever.

he said "What top 2YO ( and later top 3YO and 4YO ) made its debut on that Florida Derby card?"

Reading comprehension skills will tell you he meant seasonal debut.

After losing the What a Summer, Heavenly Prize would go on to lose the Prioress to what horse? She was named after one of the stars of Laverne and Shirley...

I knew it wasn't a dirt male...so I started thinking turf males who had run a big race at age 2.

The horse who beat Heavenly Prize that day retired 3-for-3. She's also a half sibling to the unraced Silvery Swan...who's dropped El Corredor, Silver Tornado, and Roman Ruler. Do you remember who trained her?

Yes but then someone asked him to clarify age I assumed he meant three year old, etc. Whatever.

Especially when I clarify it later in another post.

I don't even remember her name but I think she wired the field as the 5-2 second choice. Could she have been trained by Happy Alter?

Penny's Gold.

You got the first part right...

Second half of the name is something a director calls for...

Her name was Swift And Classy and she was trained by Kimmel I believe. Thast who beat Heavenly Prize.

Yes, that was the What a Summer stakes at Gulfstream....

I was reffering to the Prioress winner, later that year..

The pacesetter that day was the immortal Fred Bear Claw...who had a lovely following on message boards from the "pretty horsey" types.

However, he was no rabbit...as he was not connected to the connections of either RQ or FH..he actually managed to hold 3rd.

Oh thats easy, Pennys reshoot John Destefano I believe.

You are correct, now that I think about it, he wasn't a rabbit, my fault...

but that's a pretty good memory you have...

Owned by Port, green and pink silks I think.

Nice stretch duel in that Pimlico Special... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xAwxdb1D2w

Yup, that's her.. I believe she died later that year.
