Last year there was not a filly like Proviso who ran off 4 straight grade 1's at all the prestigious middle distance races at 4 tracks in tis country and beat males at Santa Anita.

I agree with you....and I love Goldikova and don't have a great affinity for Proviso.

I love the Prince.....I just think its an accomplishment based award and not based one one race. Where have I heard that before?

The bigger question is Champ turf horse...its not like Gio Ponti did much winning and I guess maybe there is another race like the Hollywood Turf Cup out there for Champs Pegasus to try and win but it was a horrid division.

How about Paddy O'Prado? I know he won restricted races, but so have HOY winners, and you could argue he has the best overall turf resume among males.

I have no problem with him winning, its just historical perspective that makes it very messed up.

Winchester deserves it over POP.

Oh, that's right, his trainer prevented that.

You were my next guess.

A wop is a derogatory term for an Italian American. It means without papers. I'm not sure why that is insulting, as who wants to have papers like some fancy dog?
