She did indeed and it was. She crushed them by about eight.

Yes, but she couldn't get by one of my favorites, Bounding Basque ( with Tony " never knew the rail " Graell ), in that Brooklyn.

I thought of mentioning her as well. She was a fine horse.

thanks guys.. i as chatting to a lad at leopardstown and fillies and mares against colts on dirt somehow came up in our conversation (at a national hunt meeting!). I couldn't think of any recent filly/mare who regularly raced and beat the colts on dirt..

Paisjpq -

If you make it to Saratoga this summer let me know, I'll try to find someone who can copy over the video's I have of Life's Magic and Silky Sullivan for you since I have both. Horrible copies since they are VHS though.
