and dont give me that crap about her not being in top form in 2005.
they still brought her over.
she ran a bang up race a month later in HK.

my only point is that she was beatable, just as Wait A While was shown to be.
she came back and so will Wait A While(I assume she stays in training).

I always thought Intercontinental was way better than she ever showed save last year's BC. I actually bet her on the fact that she had the jockey change and if Beranajo (sp?) let her run the way she wanted to run she could very well steal it. Too bad the jockey change never came sooner. She was a lovely hot headed mare.
