What the Nation is saying about the 2011 La Prevoyante (G3)...

Green Hills Farm’s 5-year-old mare Casablanca Smile returned from an 11-month layoff to win the $100,000 La Prevoyante Handicap (G3) at Calder Casino & Race Course on the closing day of the 2011 Tropical Meet on Friday.  Interestingly, Casablanca Smile’s last race before this afternoon was ...Read More
This is an interesting choice for Holidaysatthefarm. She has never been asked to run at a distance greater than 1 1/8 mile. However, nothing has seemed to work for her before, so maybe she needs some distance in order to be a factor. Intrigued to see where she finishes.
Lael Stable’s 4-year-old filly Senada posted a hard-fought 17-to-1 upset victory last out in the Dowager Stakes at Keeneland on Oct. 23 for trainer Barclay Tagg with Robert Scarborough’s 4-year-old English-bred filly Cheetah third as the favorite for trainer Christophe Clement, and they will clash a...Read More
  • yukichan · Reading this reminded me of one of my favorite racehorses growing up--La Prevoyante. With this talk of whether there could be a 2 yr old HOY, let alone a filly--let's remember her as the vote was split in 1972 with Secretariat getting the votes of the Thoroughbred Racing Associations of North America and the Daily Racing Form, while La Prevoyante was chosen by the National Turf Writers Association. Of course Big Red edged her out in the final voting. She was not in the wiki--strange that her race is but not her. I added her but cannot find her racing record to complete. Hopefully someone can add her races--La Prevoyante, a U.S. Champion 2-Yr-Old Filly (1972) Canadian Horse of the Year (1972) Canadian Champion Older Female Horse (1974) and Canadian/American Hall Of Famer. One of the all-time great racing mares, who unfortunately had a very tragic ending to her life. Read her bio if you don't remember her. · 181 days ago ·

  • footlick · She was such an incredibly impressive two year old. Worthy of the accolade vying with Secretariat for HOY. · 181 days ago ·
