* The winner of that race was Horse of the Year A. P. Indy.
* Pleasant Tap was 2nd. He's a mulitple Grade 1 winner of over $2 million who is the only horse in history to finish in the top 3 in the Ky Derby, BC Sprint, and BC Classic.

Back in the day, the connections of Jolypha insisted that she was better than her full brother, Dancing Brave. Too bad she never put it all together after that race.
