That was absolutely spectacular. I am awestruck and so unbelievably embarrassed that I ever thought she wouldn't win. I really hope she goes to the Breeders' Cup Classic now!
Yeah, yeah, yeah! Another super mare. This distance was first time and longest for her.A third eclipse? I know I am a bit ahead. Can someone post replay? Just love this girl, and I am so glad they kept her racing after her setbacks last year.
Wow! Was waiting all day to hear the results of this race! Amazing - for sure has the eclipse award locked up and any other year is a top choice for horse of the year! (I just think no one is taking that away from AP this year Go girl!
I don't think people actually mean a two horse match race. I think they just want them to meet up like Shared Belief and California Chrome did in the San Antonio earlier this year.
Are there any good GIs in CA in fall for her to prep for BC races, including those against the boys? Her racing schedule kind of reminds of Zenyatta's.

Here's a replay of the race for those that missed it. I'm still gobsmacked that she won so easily.
This article says it was 8 1/4, second only to Game on Dude's winning margin of 8 1/2.
Some on twitter want a match race between Beholder and Pharoah. No, no, no! The mere thought makes me ill. Let them meet in the classic.
