That was a really nice win for her and a tough field! I don't remember hearing her name before I watched the replays from last week but yeah she is a nice horse!

edit - Ed I am still catching up on stuff but have to say this is beautifully written... I just love it. Every word is so thoughtful and perfect... just really good stuff (and on my favorite girl).

Oh, thanks! But it's really easy to write about horses/performances like that - the stories basically write themselves.

Sorry to read about In Style's injury... glad it looks like she'll be back.

Rising Romance! That was stunning.

I'm going to have to watch the Avondale Guineas replay a few times before I can comment properly, but my first impression is that even though Volkstok'n'barrell was beaten today it was one of his best ever performances.

I am completely numb... that was a great performance and not to take ANYTHING away from Mongolian Khan cause that was just awesome and the more I see him the more I think he has a fantastic chance to win the Derby but YES, definitely agree.

Heartstopping!

Man I wish they would find an easier spot for Miss Pelear.
