from what i read, they said she could resume training after a break. but that they didn't want to compromise her, so she was retired. they didn't want to chance her not being as good, and i'm sure her third in her one race this year probably had something to do with that. we all know top two year olds don't always continue on at three. look at the past several winners of the bc filly race--SFF only showed flashes of her early brilliance, than there was halfbridled and sweet catomine to name a few.

as for wild fit, she's a closer, they don't always get there in time. i remember right after, when she was bought for big bucks for her potential as a broodmare saying they paid WAY too much for her, based on her pedigree....she's a flash in the pan imo. that race is one indication of a good race result not necessarily meaning it's a good horse.
