"Janey was an ungovernable creature, and obtained the name of the wild mare - she could never be rode, even to her death, and lived to be twenty-two years old. All hope of doing any thing with her had been abandoned for some years by her breeder, when an overseer, short of horses to seed a crop of wheat, proposed to break her to work, to which her owner readily consented - she proved to be a most remarkable plough nag; but the plougher had always to lead her from place to place. In 1820 she was put to horse merely to see whether she would breed." [American Turf Register Volume 6, Number 11, p. 587]
In 1825 she foaled the great racemare Polly Hopkins, winner of 23 races, triumphing in top class races between 1828 and 1830 including many Jockey Club Purses
