Speaking of Skip Away, the result of probably the best mare he was ever booked to (Lady's Secret) finally broke his maiden at 5, after never hitting the board in 7 previous tries, in the 8th at Del Mar. Unfortunately, despite being among the top 5 fillies of all time she was never much of a producer. Only 3 of her offspring have ever even won a race in the US.
