take a look at Winning Colors 4yo campaign.
Take a look at ladys secret her last year of racing which ended when she bolted on the first turn of an allownace race and pulled herself up and just stood there as the crowd gasped.
Fillies, much moreso than colts(who are not immune from this) are much more prone to this.
Hell Storm Flag Flying had all of us waiting to see her at age three after that delicious two year old year. She had decided over the winter that she no longer cared about running. She eventually won a slow grade one with a perfect trip but never again after age two did she achieve great efforts.
I'm trying to figure out the logic of Joel's post and drawing a blank.
If a guy is a "magician" with a horse, and continues to train the horse, why would the same efforts not keep occurring?

would you consider Storm Flag Flying a great horse?

I would consider her the best two year old filly that I ever saw.
yeah, she was great. She showed speed and also won at a mile and an eigth in great figure time.
I know what she was. She showed it. The fact that she refused to show it afterwards would preclude her from being great from an accomplishment standpoint, but yeah she was great.

I'll assume you are being sarcastic or just havent been around very long.

I'll leave this one to the Grand Master. I don't have the time to type out my list of better ones.

Dixie ... once again you display your wisdom.

Sarcastic was quite a filly ... winning one G1 stakes ... and placing in five other G1s ... but ...

... she wasn't much as a 2YO ... and ...

... I don't think Mike is acting like a filly ... he's a real man's man.

I agree ...

... but it's an hour and a half later ... and it's still here ... and probably will be until tomorrow.

So ... what shall we talk about next? Hey ... how about that Paris Hilton getting busted for drunk driving? Was that something ... or what?
