She is entered in the Keeneland November Sale as a racing or broodmare prospect. She is one of my favorites as well.

Yeah I have no idea, I read a DRF article that said she might come back, and then a Bloodhorse article where her connections talk about how sad they are to retire her. So... not sure anybody knows anything!

I saw an article where Krikorian was trying to decide if he was going to sell her or withdraw her to keep for his own broodmare band.

War Like Goddess was an RNA so I wonder if that means she'll race on.

No she wasn't. She sold to Australia. :(

I'm surprised Australia wanted a stayer mare. Someone's trying to breed a Melbourne Cup winner.

I wonder who she would be bred to. I'm not too familiar with Australian stallions.

Yuesheng Zhang doesn't really seem to care if it's a stayer or sprinter. He wants G1 winning mares on turf, period. He has purchased over 60 individual Gr.1 winners or producers in the last couple years.

In terms of what stallions will she go to, I assume it will be one of these:

Written Tycoon is one of the best sires in Australia, but there are also a couple of younger stallions, like Lucky Vega, that Zhang has supported with top mares.

Yulong's freshman stallion Alabama Express recently got his first G1W and has done well so far. That's also an option.

She had a good season, but that’s a jump.
