I had a great deal of affection for "her" ... and many fond memories ... her 137-pound trick was spectacular ... but as good as "she" was ... Tosmah was better ... not to mention Smart Deb, What A Treat, Terentia, Discipline, Steeple Jill, and Destro.
Those were the days when there were lots and lots of professional fillies and mares around ... not just a bunch of "fresh" "spaced-out" runway models.

And while you're in that era, don't forget the great race mare Open Fire.
