It's pretty amazing when you think about it. She was pretty much retired midway through 2005. She came back and beat a garbage field. Many people, myself included, wrote her off in the 2005 BC. She ran a very terrific second. Then she comes back this year ( and even later last year ) with a vengance and has a GREAT season, with her only subpar finish being completely due to a poor trip/ride, and then dominates the BC again.

She's more than a throwback and, as Watchmaker said in his column in tomorrow's DRF, the kind of horse for which the Hall of Fame was created.
