Life Is Sweet ... who was a very mediocre Eastern turf horse till she was transformed by Shirreffs ... she would have beat the living piss out of RA over a synthetic track in the Distaff.
.....the race she did run on syn was pretty impressive.

That was sprinting and before Asmussen took over. A Pro-Ride route is terrible for her style.

The Bill Mott Eastern turfer Mushka was 2nd in the BC Distaff ... if Rachel Alexandra would have beat Mushka, they'd have had to scrape me off the floor from shock.
