Thanks Revidere for the great photos.

Jameela? I never saw her race, but her son sure took after her - he danced every dance and did it remarkably well. His back to back Met Miles were really special accomplishments to me -plus his win in the Sprint. Jolley kept running him at middle distances, where he acquitted himself well, but Lukas made the right choice in turning him into a sprinter/miler. He turned out to be a good, solid sire as well.......hard to believe he's in his late 20's.
