You just don't get to see horses stick around like her. We are all very fortunate and the sport is better because of it. Win, lose, or draw, she was great even in defeat.

I guess you are too young to remember but it wasn't that long ago that racing horses was the rule not the exception.
And the idea that we were lucky to watch her run this year? Well maybe we were lucky to see the last race but the rest of the season was forgettable unless you are really into preseason games or something like that.
