Shocked he wants to race Goodnight Olive next year. I mean I don't know this guy obviously, don't know his blood and racing stock preferences...but I just didn't see anyone continuing to race her, aside from maybe running her in the La Brea this winter.

The La Brea is for 3yo fillies only.

She's in Keeneland November, hip 0191 or 0190 I think.

Oh dang, didn't know that. Maybe they should open it up to older mares, that might actually justify its G1 status.

Maybe he saw that Goldikova was the only three peat winner and wanted to challenge that.

I'm pleased to see that Mr. Yoshida has invested in the daughter of the Dynaformer stallion, Mr. Big. He has been impressing me with his runners, even though he has had limited mares as a California stallion.

I just watched the video on Youtube, and I don't think I've ever seen such a beautiful race mare. Stunning creature.
