Yes!!! I will be watching her for sure! If she wins, it'll be her 10th Grade 1 win.

She is my favourite horse to cheer for, no point betting her!
I'm also interested in how Stellar Wind has grown up.

Should be quite a race, but I think Beholder will show the younger ladies how it's done.

Another scary good race by the champ. Her owner says Beholder will try the boys again in the Pacific Classic next out...then on to the BC in November. Here's the replay. TJ

She takes my breath away every time. I was happy to see Stellar Wind ran a good comeback race, she's no match for Beholder, but is anyone?

I would be so excited to see her run against California Chrome! And, if she ever has a match-up against Songbird... that would be another great race!
Love this mare!! She also made history by winning a Grade 1 race, 5 seasons in a row. TVG showed it, wish I could find the chart of who she shares that honor with.
