I think by now you'd be tapped out if someone gave you a 500K bankroll to bet with two years ago.

Horses don't "do what is necessary to win"

She's one unlucky nose bob from losing to Anabaa's Creations.

Almost every horse gets beat at one time or another.

Her record is a product of how good she is versus how carefully she's been managed and how good her opposition has been.

She's very good - her trainer has done a masterful job of putting her in the easiest spots and having her most cranked up for her home court Breeders Cup Races - and other than about 3 or 4 races her competition has been a total joke.
