i agree, they threw everything at her to make her stop and she didn't. great horses win when the going is tough. forget about those 20 length romps against inferior horses. when it was on the line this horse showed tremendous class. face it, that whole field was focused on beating her and they were all older too. she fought it off like the champions do.
