I'm still trying to get the mount on Balletto.

Here's hoping we're still talking about the horse...

I agree, one of the few best stories in all of racing. It shows a great horse can come from anywhere with any breeding. And she ran a better race than the winner the other day. These jocks just don't appreciate how much ground loss affects a race. She ran huge.

I strongly disagree. Healthy Addiction ran a monster race. Happy Ticket had no shot against this horse on that day.

Nonsense, the pace favored Addiction and the ground loss killed Happy Ticket. Run that race 10 times, and Happy Ticket wins it 8. Bad racing luck and a terrific race by Healthy, but not unbeatable by any means on that day.

Healthy Addiction is my second favorite mare behind Balletto and she did run a monster race, but in a head to head, i'll conceed defeat to Happy Ticket 7 out of 10 tries.
