Bushfire is certainly no killer, but you know what, she's pretty good, and a better horse than Wonder Lady Anne L and that has been fairly conclusively proven. Her Kentucky Oaks effort was probably the best in that race as she certainly ran far and away the best race of anyone who was anywhere near the pace that day.

My point about the Acorn was mostly about a racetrack that was much more than unkind to ANY horse trying to make up ground. The simple fact is that none did. Take a good look at the completely ineffectual closes that every member of the field put in during that " staggerfest down the lane ". Sorry if I will defer to Wonder lady Anne L's actual pps when I reserve judgement that she would have been any more effectual than the remaining members of that field.
Call me on a tale, go for it, and be specific.
