Strengths: Impeccable bloodlines include champion sprinter and elite 2-year-old Smoke Glacken on top and a female Phipps family that includes grand dam Heavenly Prize, Good Reward, Pure Prize and Dancing Forever. Has made all the natural rises in class and distance you’d expect from a top 2-year-old and finishes her races with the appearance of wanting more.

Weaknesses: Slow to gain stride, she has been sent wide in her one-turn races and lost valuable ground from the back of the pack. Has yet to attempt two turns and could be susceptible to a poor post draw by losing ground on both turns if not taken completely back out of the mix. Must prove she can handle surfaces other than traditional dirt and be able to travel away from home.

Biographies on jockeys, trainers and owners are from the Breeders' Cup World Championships events from 2001 through 2009, and are intended as informational resources. Biographies will be updated if an individual is again a participant in the Breeders' Cup World Championships.

Biographies are available for most horses appearing in the top 100 money earnings list, and/or for those who are frequently making headlines in the news starting with the 2006 Triple Crown season.
