Ruffian - The Movie

[The Indomitable DrugS]

They should make a movie about Mariah's Storm!

She debuted at little Ak Sar Ben racetrack in a 7K msw race, won by 13 lengths in hand throughout...won a Grade 2 in just career start #3...

Than she goes to Keeneland for the Alcibiades in her next start and BREAKS HER LEG.

All the bad things that can happen....all the drama

But she makes it!

And returns a year later to win her comeback race with a 103 Beyer. Follows that one up with a 14 length stake win at Arlington Park, with a 109 Beyer in hand throughout. (Midas Eyes dam 2nd) she wins three more dirt races after that--and brings a streak of five straight wins on dirt since the fractured leg into a showdown with superstar Serena's Song.

It's no contest.....the Donnie Von Hemel trainee, under jockey RN Lester, blows Serena's Song off the racetrack...winning by 5 1/2 lengths and running a 120 Beyer figure (I believe jointly the highest Beyer ever published for a filly or mare)

We can conveniently leave out the fact that she (and several other real superstar fillies) got her teeth kicked in over a sloppy track by Inside Information in the Breeders Cup Distaff.

Mariah's Storm goes off to the breeding shed....her first foal turns out "the iron horse" Giant's Causeway. Sounds like a decent movie to me!

As I'm sure many of you know....they already did a movie based (tremendously loosely) on the career of Mariah's Storm....they called it Dreamer...and everyone I know who's ever saw it hated it.
