She has less then a 1% chance to win HOY. She is amazing, but beating Gio Ponti does not make you American HOY. If one of the big 4 dont win the Classic, her odds would go up from 1% to about 5.34%.

Better than Zenyatta unless Zenyatta wins the BC Classic.

I loved when they showed her groom running down the rail cheering her on.. That was great.

She has so many gears, Peslier started asking her on the turn and not only was she able to hit that gear, she found another gear inside the final 1/8th. Not many can do that, all the credit to her. That was a better mile than even Lure's 11 post wide draw 2nd BC mile win.
