Happy Breeders’ Cup Weekend!
Can you believe it has been 3 YEARS since Beholder’s epic battle down the final stretch with Songbird? We definitely can’t. We are reminiscing on that history-making moment & hair-raising race call today.
Enjoy!

One of the most exciting Breeder’s Cup races ever!! What a finish. Beholder was simply brilliant.
Photo of that finish hangs proudly in my house. What an amazing race. Both horses and riders (Stevens & Smith) giving everything they had. Simply awesome!
Talk about heart-pounding! I was very happy for Beholder and Spendthrift. I love both of these beautiful and courageous mares, and I have really enjoyed watching their babies grow up.
This race is in my Top 10 favorites – so fun!
Watching the replay makes my heart beat fast just like it did 3 years ago watching it live on my laptop at home.
Beholder won like the total Queen that she is! ?? Love her!
