I'm glad she gets to enjoy retirement, but I'm still a little sad. Ten foals, eight winners, three of them G1. (None of them as good as their mommy, though. )

She was a nice one. Hope she lives out her life as the fashionable lady she's always been.

Great for her. I just watched the replay the other day of her magnificant run in the breeders cup distaff. A True Champion.

Phooey on her and her distaff win... Just kidding. I am a Winning Colors fan.

I hope she lives out her life as enjoyable as she was to watch racing.

Personal Ensign definitely gave us high drama in that Distaff win, but Winning Colors was a cool runner too.
Did I read that she (Winning Colors) was/is in foal? I know she's had trouble in the past.

She just had a foal and was bred again. I think she had a Mr. Greeley foal and is bred to Orientate. It is that way or vice versa where she had an Orientate foal and is bred to Mr. Greeley. I forget. Blond in me...
