pine island still smarts. love to see a phipps homebred do well, i always root for them and any with a claiborne connections as well. i'm still kicking myself for not putting a couple down on persistently. shug and denny had to be over the moon about winning the personal ensign with her today. hated to see rachel lose, but it was a good win for them.

One of the first things I learned on this site was "Shug-Phipps is $$$ in big races". I guess this was big enough

Thank you to Danzig for being a rare voice of reason and "horse sense"

Seriously guys? Seriously? Take it to Esoteric if you want to act like kindergartners

She'd win by maybe a half-length.

She could run in a 4 claimer at Ellis and give the fans a heart attack.

Nah, the entertainment part is the paddock prancing. She is all business when it is time to face the likes of Anaabaa's Creation.
