She foaled Giant's Causeway who of course won 11 Group 1 races and narrowly lost to our only repeat BC Classic winner Tiznow. Giant's Causeway has also produced the best 3 yr old this year in Eskendereya and First Samurai as the leading 3 yr old heading into the Derby preps. Don Von Hemel told Bill Peters she was simply the best horse he had ever trained period.
What about AP Indy for best older horse in the 90s? He won 28 grade one's in a row as a four and five year old, plus, the top 6 finishers of the BC Marathon this year all trace back to him tail male.
