Ouija Board
 
I love this mare, but she's being campaigned so hard and thrown into the most difficult races. After Traveling to the US, Japan, Hong Kong and Dubai, she's now taking on Electrocutionist and David Junior at Royal Ascot this weekend. Sheesh!! I need a break just thinking of it!

no pace in the race either so it may turn into sprint. wont suit her at all. Arguably, she better at 12 than 10F. They should have waited for the Eclipse in July, but IMO the prestige of Royal Ascot made their decision.

Aren't there any decent races with prestige for females? She's entered against the boys too much, IMO. She always gives a good account of herself in these races, but I'd like to see her win little more often. (she deserves it!)

Agree completely, zippy!

I feel bad for this mare. I think she deserves a little better. Lighter note, who would you breed her with when she retires?

Sorry to disagree..... she's good enough and she proves it nearly every time.

seconditis 06-19-2006 11:26 PM

I never said she wasn't good enough. That has nothing to do with the horse deserving better, be it a break or running against the females.

What are you disagreeing about? NO ONE said she's not good enough.

Yes I realize that and I'm sorry if you took offense to my wording.....

Good enough to take on Electrocutionist and David Junior was all I meant.
