Its not hard for me to come up with 10 Euro turf runners that are definitely better than her that raced this decade.

The Rock
High Chaparral
Dalakhani
Sulamani
Falbrav
Alamshar
Montjeu
Sinndar
Giants Causeway
Kalanisi
Sakhee
Fantastic Light
Galileo
Dubai Millennium
Rakti
Hawk Wing
Marienbard
Doyen
Grandera


and Im sure I am leaving off another 20 more that will come to me later.
I could probably name 10 horses just trained by AOB that were better than her that ran this decade.

great racemare, but no way does she rank with horses like Dalakhani and Falbrav.



Repent
he said she 'could be' the best this decade. certainly one of the very best mares to run, altho i would put makybe diva above her. but she has been a TOP horse for more years than most horses even run. incredibly tough, consistent, and carried more weight overseas than our top colts over here.
