B C Basic B

Post by Laura Smith »

It's not often that I have a mixer really worth bragging about. but this little lady is hot stuff.
https://www.simhorseracing.com/horse.php?HorseID=959867

She was always good, but this is a REALLY good crop of fillies and they all took turns beating each other for the first year or so. Fair enough, right? Well, my girl put it all together W10 of last year and hasn't lost since. She ran three 94SFs in a row, including the SC last year, and then yesterday popped out a 95 -- the highest any QH DR filly has ever run, and tied with Night Scene for the fastest QH DR fig ever.

Tempted to get her a headshot. Maybe if she can win one of those fancy things W6, she can buy herself one. Ooh. Maybe she should run against the boys!? Hmm. Anyway, yay for fast things!

Thanks, friends! So sorely tempted to retire her...and with the extra week of breeding time, every day is going to be a fresh struggle haha.

Fun sidenote regarding her name... So I moved west to BC from the Toronto area several years ago, and since then, I got to be real outdoorsy and stuff, which is pretty stereotypical of people in BC. Went back to Ontario to visit friends and was talking about kayaking and hiking and nature and stuff (which would have been pretty out of character for Toronto Laura) and my one friend said "Wow! So you're a real BC basic b----" now!"
I laughed a lot and reserved the name that night. For the record, yes, I really am a BC basic b----.

Holy crap, she did it. She won her third SC race... seemed so unlikely after having not won all year. Saved it for when it counted most, I guess.
Looks like she'll be nice in the shed, too... thanks, girl! You did good.
