Its one thing not to have Citronnade and Precious Kitten on there, but omitting Delicate Vine is like blasphemy considering all the adoration the Mosses get on here.

Citronnade would be dueling it out front with Intercontinental as my second favorite.

I voted for Toussaud, but was going to mention Delicate Vine as well. That filly was awesome.

Toussaud though? I know I've said it many times before, but to this day I still think she was one of the most electrifying horses I've ever seen run. Her turn of foot must be seen to be understood.

Here is her Gamely win

About ten years ago, Frankel was asked who his best fillies that he ever trained were, and he replied that they were Toussaud, Delicate Vine and Jolypha.

Of course, he's had some awesome ones since then, but those first two were no brainers.

Hands down, Megahertz is my all-time favorite Frankel female. I loved watching that little horse run!

looks like a lot of folks think the same way, she's outdistancing the competition.

I had the good fortune to speak with Bobby in the Saratoga paddock about a week after Indian Flare went a half in 44 + with a broken pelvis and had to be put down. He was so proud of her. She may not have been the best filly or mare, but suffice it to say he thought she was one of the gamest.
