Princess Doreen - 1921 - 1952

What a hard-knocking filly/mare she was. Love that we share the same name - Doreen.

What a mare. Ninety-four starts in four years. Horses and people both were whole lot tougher in those times. She must have retired sound and healthy too, to live to the ripe old age of 31.

Interesting pedigree; her dam was a half to Sir Barton.

Ballerina, did a wallpaper of Princess Doreen. Wanted to post it here for you but the link for posting photos disappeared - just wasn't there. So I posted it on the Fab Fillies thread, here:

Scroll to the bottom of the page. Hope you like it.
BTW - Is this something new or is my computer just screwing up again? No link under additional options here for photos but the link was available on the other page in the Racing Photos topic.

Thanks, jjacks. Appreciate it. Perhaps the link is only available on the photos section. I've never noticed it anywhere else.
