Beholder is so great, as good a filly as we have had around my time.
Reminded me of Sunday Silence/Easy Goer Preakness.

What race were you guys watching ? I can't believe there is not an uproar.



I can hear them in the New York henhouse cackling right now "oh songbird fails her biggest test" even though she actually won .she just had no excuse vs an over the hill beholder and we were right just like we always are

You're halfway right. The ones that couldn't just disagree with anyone that thought she was good but had to belittle and ridicule you along the way.....yes, they are having a laugh. But she didn't win.
