When do we START talkin about the fastest fillies ever to be loaded into the gate?

Didn't Bewitch have a colt stablemate who was pretty good? He ran second to her as a 2YO ... I forget his name ... but I think it began with a C ... whatever happened to him?
Hail To Reason is a good example of starting early ... and a bad one. "Good" because he stunk in his first five starts ... which began in January! ... then did OK in his next six starts ... then blossomed into a spectacuklar champion in his next seven starts ... a total of 18 starts as a 2YO! ... getting better and better with each one. But he's also a "bad" example ... because he broke down and never raced again.
Hoist The Flag may have been the greatest race horse in the history of the world ... may have ... but we'll never know 'cause he broke down too.
And please don't refer to yourself as a noodge ... you are definitely NOT a noodge ...
... you're a complete pain-in-the-ass!
