Turn of foot?

I don't know how this conversation didn't end when Formal Gold was first mentioned.

Cure The Blues and Private Terms are the two I remember as the most impressive.
Jameela won her maiden race by a neck over another firster named Alto Pride in a stretch duel that would be memorable in any graded stakes race.It was 9 lengths back to the third horse Dress Ship,a Buddy Delp trained niece of Ruffian who was odds on.
What made that race most memorable for me is that I learned how to box exactas after that race.I held a $2 Alto Pride/Jameela exacta worth nothing.It paid close to $600 the way it came.

So as to beat DrugS to it.....Jameela was the dam of Gulch.

Ah, debut races witnessed in person? I can't say I've seen anything memorable, like, ever.

Another big Sciacca performance in the 1st... Shouldn't they let his stock get a running start about a pole ahead of the others?

Ever seen or seen live there is no doubt in my mind it was Zippy Chippy in August 2001 at Frontier Field in Rochester. A brilliant performance.

Can't remember the name, but the colt (or filly) that set the 4.5 furlong record last year at Keeneland sticks out in my mind. I was impressed by that one.

i'm guessing it won't show up on this list of flashy maiden wins.

at least she got there in less tries than Tubacity.
