[The Indomitable DrugS]

I'm sure Melair was a machine - but still, you don't see 21 and change first quarters in two-turn route races that often.

She beat some useful horses that day when she ran the 115 Beyer and got hurt.

The horse who was 2nd came back and had 5 wins and 4 seconds in her next 9 starts - including a Grade 2 win and a Grade 1 second.




The 3rd place finisher was beaten by 25 lengths - and she came back to win her next start by 7 lengths at 7/1 odds - followed by a 2nd by a nose in a small stake at 6/1.



The 4th place finisher was beaten 31 lengths and she's a solid 70's Beyer kind of horse ...




The 5th place finisher couldn't handle the hot pace and was eased - but came back to win a Graded Stake on the turf.




This La Feminn filly was on the verge of greatness before that injury. She had blinding speed and could carry it atleast a mile. Even her three comeback races the following year where all strong triple digit Beyer efforts. She ran a 105 Beyer in her turf debut before that fast 2nd to Dream Supreme in her final career start.

The dam of La Feminn sure put out some useful runners, considering the breeding
