Good luck, Habibi! Can't wait.

Her little half-sister Malala runs in a 2yo race at Ruakaka this weekend as well.

Can't believe you got me to watch that MMSC. I've seen Crossing the Line. This one isn't in the same league.

Oh Kingie I do still love you.

That was not good.

I don't know how good it could have been with that nitwit up (just sayin) but yeah... it's a shame cause she was really SO good.

That was, by more than 10 lengths, the worst race of her life. Terrible performance.

Anyone that read Andy Harrington in National Turf -- and that's everyone who bets California -- knew she is a lumbering sort and needs much longer.

Ed... I just watched her Derby win again and I had forgotten that Soriano was in there!

Aaah I hope we see the old Habibi today.

I would like to see them stretch her out, she seems to be best at about 1 1/4 or longer.
