![]() Not from a lot of people on this forum. And that's a shame. Like Smarty Jones's run for the TC in 2004, her streak and her style did a lot for the sport.

The thing that people don't want to acknowledge is that anyone who was considered a hater, wasn't hating. They just disagreed with some of superlatives being thrown her way. She's not the greatest horse ever. She's not the best filly ever either. She's a really, really good horse. Nothing wrong with that. |

I thought she ran a fantastic race and showed that she belonged with the best horses of her generation. For the 2nd year in a row, I vastly underestimated how good she is. Could she have had a vastly more interesting campaign this year? Of course she could have. But I'm glad as hell they didn't retire her last year, like 95% of owners would have, if just for this one race. --Dunbar
