During the race, I just got the feeling that it was going to be a replay of Stacelita all over again.

I never once had that feeling. She looked locked and loaded the entire trip. I thought she was a winner, until she got clear and never at any point did she burst away.

What a warrior/champion she was, but to end a career getting beat by a horse like Court Vision was a bit of a slap in the face.

I disagree, the only people who were slapped in the face by Court Vision were the bettors.

a bigger slap in the face was a horse like Perfect Shirl beating the likes of Nahrain, Stacelita, and Misty For Me

She did have a trip at Woodbine last out, she might have come into this off a major Grade 1 win had she got clear. Anyway you cut it though Misty For Me was tons the best.
