Thanks. I see it's serving it's purpose.

Thanks for admitting you're holding it against her?

Again if that's the case you're showing her at her finest

Thanks for calling the profile pic nice. After the race I said nice things about her. She's a very, very good horse.

What else do you want me to say?

Nothing but you don't have to gloat about her only winning one 10 furlong race.

I am assuming Proviso will be champion fm turf horse based on her four grade 1 wins........or does one win trump the entire season in north america?

I may be on a different page to everyone regarding how the horse of the year works, but who was the best filly or mare to run on turf this year in North America? It certainly wasnt Proviso!!

Goldikova got the Eclipse last year with just the 1 race in North America. This year she got 5 G1s including the BC Mile, a G1 placing, and she beat Proviso. No way does anybody else get Champion Female Turf Horse, especially not with Goldikova getting that 3rd BC race. The acceleration she has is just crazy impressive.

Your going to have to educate me on the north american races other than the Mile.

Last year there was not a filly like Proviso who ran off 4 straight grade 1's at all the prestigious middle distance races at 4 tracks in tis country and beat males at Santa Anita.

I agree with you....and I love Goldikova and don't have a great affinity for Proviso.

Well can someone please education me on the G1 races Benny the Bull ran in North America when he got the Sprint Eclipse over Midnight Lute, winner of that year's BC Sprint? Oh, that's right, there were none. Not even a G3 win in this country. ML would've won the G1 Pat O'Brien too if not for the trouble with the gate causing him to break badly, but whatever.

Proviso didn't lose by a neck or a half a length. She was 7th to the impressive returning champ. Good luck to anybody getting the Eclipse over Goldi.
