It was a privilege to be there today - I think in time she'll be remembered as a better filly than Zarkava even though she never got within 2 lenghts of her (Zarkava is the last horse to beat Goldi over a mile!)

not trying to be "that guy" but Goldikova did run 7th in her debut last year at 1 1/8th. And as pointed out above, I think Ouija Board is an extremely good parallel to Goldikova.

I think best comparasion for Zarkava, is Sea the Stars, and I think she was better than him...

agree with your point - im not necessarily saying that Goldi is better than Zarkava but in time she will be looked at as a legend (especially if she wins a 3rd BC!)

Looks like she will have a little break and head for the Marois (which she won last year) the Foret (which she should have won last year) and then the BC.
