That's funny you brought her up. I was a big fan of her's as well and I was recently telling someone about what a wonderful horse Waya was and how she dusted Pearl Necklace in that record setting Diana......which was quite an accomplishment.

Wow! That's impressive. Exactly right.....even the spelling.

She ran 48 times with 21 wins, 11 seconds, 6 thirds and won $737K in the 70s which is quite an accomplishment. She won 9 graded stakes races.

What a horse.

She was certainly a better horse than Jeffrey Fell was a rider. I have absolutely no idea what happened to him.

Way back when, Jeffrey Fell won an Arkansas Derby, defeating a colt called linkage.,who was like 2/5, With a horse i cant remember his name.He got me out for the weekend with that horse. He paid about 30.00. I remember that because i was dead broke ! I am pretty sure Jeff is in the Canadian Hall of Fame.

I recently took a course at NYU on the history of the Arkansas Derby.

I signed up to meet girls.....and tell the truth about Smarty Jones.
