It always amazes me that people cannot appreciate a special horse when they see one perform, ultimately they need to be compared via opinion, no problem with this, fantasy conditions and then degraded based on hypothesis.
She has to be one of the smartest three year olds I have seen race in a while and I believe the best three year old over 1600m in the country currently. Having comfortably beat the Met Winner over 1600m who incidentally is the first 3yr old filly to win the Met in over 100 years clearly was not good enough.
Sometimes we lose the appreciation of a potentially great race horses by wanting to degrade their performances based on hypothesis instead of just enjoying watching them perform.

i think last winter must be very close to been the best horse in SA .Best fillies over a mile snowdance 1800m plus o sussana.In my eyes even though from the cape majestic mambo is right up there. Was disappointing stable did not run him in the derby and must be careful how they manage this horse.Will win triple crown on his cocunut but all triple crown winners over the last few years gave gone backwards.

Lets not forget the likes of dancers daughter ebony flyer river jetez and beach beauty who all performed against the best at wfa against turf greats like pocket power and variety club...if you added al sahem and edict of nantes to the met field that would have made it far more interesting..Lets hope that some of these stars go to joburg and run in the wfa races there like the 4 bar race on champions day for last winter and the classic or empress club stakes for snaiths pair ...no excuses at the big t with the long run in...

Going back a bit further who can forget the great Roland's Song?
There's no doubt Snowdance is talented. Best in SA? Lets see her go past 1600 before we even consider that.

I am sure the post meant at the moment
Its always open ended going down memory lane but good for the brain cells.
I must say the July this year could end up being a cracking contest
