Thank you, Mr. Cruz, for once again proving you now have a heart and that miracles do happen.

Happy retirement, Beauty Flash, member of the HK old guard and multiple G1 winner, who has shown no interest in racing for the past 2 and a half seasons (since returning from Dubai in Spring of 2011).

My favorite race of his... one of the spurts where he'd won three in a row (three G1's in this case), here's the Group 1 Queens Silver Jubilee Cup where he beat such greats as Good Ba Ba and Lucky Nine (and some pretty damned good horses like One World and Sunny King).

Hope he gets to go home now.
