Thats pretty much what I was thinking. I mean, are we just talking horses that have run here or are we talking about european horses as well? Can you really put her up there with:
Holy Bull, Ghostzapper, Alysheba, skip away, sunday silence, easy goer, cigar?
Those are US based horses I came up with off the top of my head and I'm sure you can think of a bunch more. Internationally, you would be hardpressed to put her in with these Mares:
Zarkhava, islington, goldikova, makybe Diva, Sunline, ouija board
I love Z but at the same time you have to be realistic. I think I can put her with some of the best mares in the last 30 years to run in the US but i have a hard time putting her up there with those horses named.
