I am begining to wonder if we will see her run again. I sure hope she gets back to the races. It is a beautiful thing to see her run.

Seems like something may be amiss besides a "fever"... Something seems a bit off. I remember when I worked at the track and we had a horse that came up a bit lame and did'nt want it to run, we always used the 'ole "fever" excuse... It's a great excuse to keep the media away. Perhaps she has what the Green Monkey has.....

that's quite possibly the most nonsensical theory i've heard on here since pg1985 left the building.

personally, i think it was her debut at 4.5 furlongs last year that ruined her.

she actually ran harder and longer in that race than in the belmont, and she's never been the same since.

O yea, she has been just fine since. Keep thinking that way, you just might believe it.
