Wow. Was hardly hoping . . .how much did she win by?? (I'm stuck at work couldn't go)

I'm not great with lengths, but I'd say it was about three. There was one within striking distance, but she put her away. There was a group coming hard behind that, but they had no chance at this distance.

My friend who actually bought the share called me in celebration and tried to get her 2 year old grandson to say "the horsie won", but all he could do is yawn (up from a nap) and when I said his name he started whimpering.
"who is this lady and how does she know my name??"

thanks I saw the replay---She was wide on three turns basically, since there was an immediate turn after the start, and, although she looked momentarily taken aback at the top of the stretch, she accelerated nicely.

Even better, TVG's cameras stayed on her after the race and she had her ears up and looked strong, like she could do it all again.

Very happy. They're going to send her down to Florida for some winter turf races after a month or so off.
