i was ignoring you. . . i don't think you realize how vague saying a horse had a 126 timeform is. here's one for you: horse ran a 100 beyer. . . trainer doesn't like broccoli.

Because they didn't race just five or six times a year against Rinterval and Dance to my Tune in slow paced exhibitions.

This one was not very fast .... but she was pretty nice and honest - traveled - and was around for a while I believe. The two seconds to Serena's Song.

This one is tough. She's the dam of a very awesome horse. Smithwick got her right but she was dismantled by Serena's Song and Urbane in her stakes debut. Name her.

Yep.

Serena's Song also met superstars like Lakeway and Yank's Music. She actually met Alphabet Soup in the Santa Anita Handicap the year he upset Cigar in the Breeders Cup Classic .. and both her and Alphabet Soup just so happened to turn in like career worst performances on the same day.
