Hard to believe she wouldnt have been one of the few american horses of the last 30 or so years that may have been good enough with enough stamina to have a shot in the Melbourne Cup

Officially she isn't retired yet, now the Matriarch was shortened to 8 furlongs so that is out, Japan Cup? I would love to see it, but we know this isn't happening.
