Unfortunately she seems to be one that barely made it out alive. Hey, I hope she does improve ( I suppose in the Go For Wand ? ) as that division needs all the help it can get. I just doubt it will happen.

Shawand, I believe, was second choice to Hurricane Run in the Arc. Did you know, by the way, that Emmanuelle Beart presented the trophy for the Arc last year?
I just figured that a Timber Country out of a Nijinsky II mare has to enjoy the route of ground, adn judging by her physique she is very typical of her pedigree...Depending if she can dodge Oonagh MaCool and Happy Ticket in her next start, I have been planning on betting on her on the stretchout to around two turns....she'd have to dodge that duo though...
