ouija board is no lightweight. she'll be as easygoing about gorella passing her as she was the other day when alexander goldrun came up to her...and ouija has been competitive with some of the best males that europe has to offer. her win over the boys a couple months ago was something to see. and she'd have handed david junior all he could handle if her jock knew what they heck he was doing a few weeks ago!
if gorella knew the whole story, i don't know that she'd be as sure as some on here about the outcome! and believe me, i was impressed by what she did today. but ouija board is a tough nut to crack.

Not saying that it won't be a good race or that Gorella will win easily. Just in my opinion, Gorella is the best filly or mare out there right now.

she's the best filly or mare?? gorella?
sorry, i beg to differ. good performances are to be enjoyed, but best out there? c'mon... gorella this year: At 4: Won Just a Game H.(USA-G2T), Beverly D. (USA-G1T ouija board this year: At 5: Prince of Wales's Stakes (GB-G1), Vodafone Nassau Stakes (GB-G1), 2nd Coronation Cup (GB-G1), 3rd Queen Elizabeth II Cup (HK-G1), 4th Dubai Sheema Classic (UAE-G1) gorella won her first grade one today, while ouija board has five. and that one is coming to the u.s. for her third bc f+m turf, with a win and a second under her belt the last two years.

lol
ouija boards win the other day was her first race against females since last october here in the states. she's over there carrying 130 or so pounds, seven straight races against males, and doing what you're speculating gorella can do, while shipping to the u.s., back, to dubia, and back. that's eight races for her this year doing all of that. remind me how many starts gorella has under her belt this year? i enjoy all these performances we've been lucky enough to witness, but you won't catch me handing out unearned laurels. you have to beat the best to be the best. if gorella starts doing what ouija board has done, and continues to do, then i'll praise her to high heaven. but not before. and as for five grade ones by this time next year, i'll be surprised if she has that many starts by this time next year.

I would have liked to see Gorella and MY favorite Megahertz tangle at 9.5 furlongs, especially if Mega got her in Cali. I'm not sure who would win, but seeing the two of them together flying down the track (and blazing by the rest of the field) would have been exciting.

Jim, sorry I didn't come down to see you, I was in no mood to be talking to anyone after the day I had and it completely slipped my mind, I only got to the paddock(not even the lower level, a level above the Bart/Henry statue) once and that was for Showing Up
