We saw how watered down the older horse division has become is by the fields that were in there. Shes already beaten older horses and she is still undefeated. I think she is done racing period, but if she ever did come back it would make sense for one reason only- the Dubai World Cup.
The consecutive streak record for one, a second BC classic, there is no point bringing her back to run in So Cal Fillies races now that she has beaten the boys, I would compact her schedule to 4-5 top races around America and maybe Dubai. There are still enough disbelievers out there that it would be a worthwhile risk, putting off motherhood for one yr is not out of the question in my mind.
