Wish her luck! Bernardini is getting all the hot dates nowadays!
Rachel and Blind Luck never met up on the track. Perhaps they'll meet in the rather long waiting line . . . .
Speaking of waiting lines, Goldi has arrived at Coolmoore for her date with Galileo.
It will be interesting to see which super babies are able to do the most.
I wish them all the best, especially the little filly above.

The grass, for one. The Bluegrass area sits on a huge shelf of limestone which creates bountiful, lush, dark green grass for mares and babies to graze on.
In California (most of it) horses are turned out in small paddocks (2 acre) and the only grass is in ittigated paddocks. Easy for horses to eat down and then have no grazing opportunities.
Depending on where the owner's barn is, the mare could be living in the rainy part of Washington or the high desert part. Neither section is as good for raising young TB's as Ky is.
The grass is freakish in Ky. During April, May and June, I would/should have mowed each field 3x/week. After that, once a week.
Bernie will take over the Slew crown.
Resurrected this thread to post a new photo of Blind Luck from the Facebook page of Pegasus Training and Equine Rehabilitation Center. She's sporting a "baby Bernardini bump" and Pegasus announced she's carrying a filly!
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...type=1&theaterFor all of the Blind Luck fans out there... here is a new picture of Blind Luck taken today at Hill 'N' Dale Farm in Kentucky! She looks fabulous and is doing great. We are pleased to announce that she is reportedly carrying a filly! That filly will have one amazing momma to teach her the way it's done!

awww, love her! When will she go back to WA?
And I think she's purty.
I am now hoping for a rivalry between Rachel Alexandra's Bernardini filly and Blind Luck's Bernardini filly.
It does. She sure is a tiny thing!
So the first part of my prediction has come true.
I wondered about that, too. I didn't know she was still at Hill 'N' Dale Farm.

That it would be a filly.
