She's a Super Freak

“And a spectacular, spectacular display of power from GotMeOnMyNeezLayla, OH a tour-de-force! What a fantastic filly, Vintage Master is no match, she’ll have to be second best today as La Belle Simone and Drag The Waters are just trying to keep up! Here she is, a filly for the ages, it’s GotMeOnMyNeezLayla by twenty under the wire . . . “

TWENTY?!? Javier peeked under his arm, it couldn’t possibly be that much, Layla was barely running, and her 103 Beyer Speed Rating would reflect that later. But sure enough, the three straggling fillies who had dared to face Layla, the Preakness winner, were barely visable. Sure it was an impressive looking win, but when the competition was so over matched it was just a slaughter!

AHHH! Layla won so many good races this season! I’m so excited, I had no idea she was this good! She won the Mother Goose by twenty lengths! Sound familiar? Rachel Alexandra ran a similar campaign this year. I ran Layla in the Preakness against the boys and kicked their asses! The only race she lost was the Whitney, she lost because the track was muddy, she HATES mud obviously. I will post the videos of her races as soon as I can!

She was getting better as she raced more, such a shame she has to retire, I was planning on racing her until she was five years old. Oh well, she doesn’t really have much more to prove, she’s a super filly!
