Gorella Breeder Cup?
 
Call me impressed. I was one of those wondering about the distance. So, where does she go? Breeders Cup Mile or Filly Turf? After today, I say put her in the Filly Turf.

Filly and Mare Turf. Be surprised if it was the mile.

be a heck of a race between her and ouija board if they opt for the filly and mare turf. i think she'll be a force to be reckoned with in either race.

I saw the race on television and she looked very impressive although during the stretch she really did not come into camera view until close to the 1/16th pole.

A friend of mine saw the race from the Arlington grandstand and said the race was absolutly over well before the 1/8 pole.

We've all seen some races like this but at this level it was super impressive.

Very impressive, but Ouija Board would thrash her.

Guys shes a very nice filly but she tripped out to the max. The pace in the beverly was like 1:11 as opposed to the Million's 1:15. Thats about a 20 length difference. They really set it up for her. Shes great though.

that was my first thought. that mare has been thrashing, or should be thrashing when she has the right jock, the top colts in europe. she may eat gorella for lunch...but i'd like to see it for sure, rather than have a bunch of speculating come november....
