Washington's big mare, E Z Kitty is going to Exchange Rate. I am not sure if anyone posted that.

"Oh, What fresh Hell is this?!"- Sheldon Cooper(borrowed from someone else)

Very famous quote from Dorothy Parker. One of her biographies is even called "What Fresh Hell Is This?" I say it every time an unfamiliar number appears on my caller I.D. or I go to the mailbox.

Ah, thanks for that, couldn't remember who it was- I did have it quoted correctly on the old board- but with the big crash, lost the info.

I'm assuming she'll return to have her foal. If this is indeed the case, will she return as soon as they determine she's pregnant?
Thanks...
Maybe im imaginging this, but i recall reading that she would foal in ireland, be bred back, then return to the US

Unless I missed something, I don't think it was ever officially announced what they decided. They just said both were options they would consider. Anything new yet? And when you say she would be bred back, do you mean to Galileo again?

I'm just delighted she's going to Galileo. I can't wait for this foal. I hope we see Mr. Leon receive more top race horses, he's been such a sportsman.
