I thought Flute was a spectacular filly. I think there was a lot more potential there.

Spectacular?

She was definitely in the top 500 fillies of the last 25 years.

She won the KY Oaks and Alabama but she was never that fast and was a no show at the end of the season. Exogenous, who was second to her in the Alabama, had passed her within a month. She was simply a better horse at the time of her unfortunate demise.

Not even a mention of Heavenly Prize...

Heck even Educated Risk would have dusted Flute, Spain, Exogenous etc....

your capacity for exaggeration is legend.

some 3yos not being mentioned would also include lakeway and sardula, and up to a mile, definitely melair.

hollywood wildcat and dance smartly could both run too.
