Ms. Caviar today at Newmarket...

Hope not!
* * * http://horses.sportinglife.com/SL_Fa...130850,00.html Pulling out my hair trying to figure out how to arrange Bated Breath, Ortensia, Little Bridge, Joy And Fun and Margot Did. As usual I'm playing Excelebration to beat Frankel although a, haven't had much luck in the past   and b, I do like Red Jazz as well.Can't wait! Hope the HK kids do well (some tough girls up against them though) and of course best of luck, Mr. Channon. How about you SS? Are you playing every race? Looking forward to / playing / rooting for anyone in particular?

i'm just looking forward to seeing frankel and black caviar. i can't remember if frankel has run on a soft course. do you know if excelebration "excels" on a soft course? he will definitely need some kind of edge to have a chance to beat the beast.

It's not like she's been beating allowance type horses. I believe I will be but one of many that will be cheering her on this Saturday. Not only because of what she has already shown, but because we want to believe that she is as good or even better than we have so far seen. They at least put her on a plane and traveled 30 hours to prove it. No one can say her connections ever "ducked" the competition in order to remain unbeaten. Black Caviar is a truly exceptional race horse. To be able to look back one day and say "I remember when......", just as those do/did that were witness to previous greats of the past such as Secretariat, Phar Lap, Sea Bird, Ruffian, etc.,is going to be an awesome feeling.

Yeah Hay List is an average horse. I'm sure Black Caviar will be intimidated by the monsters she'll face this weekend.
