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).

Pent..

No one is indicting "I.C." while praising "O.B." But she left the '05 F&M from the 13 hole and Intercontinental got away clean on the front end and Ouija Board fell short.. Was also on well less than firm turf (which she prefers a great deal), and she was indeed coming around from a career-threatening injury. She got beat on the square as Ed Dunlop and Lord Derby readily acknowledge, but let's be honest; any kind of pace challenge up front last year and Ouija very likely is a winner of three straight F&M Turfs.

The horse that gets lost in the shuffle in these discussions continually is Film Maker... Directly behind Ouija three years in a row...
