I once heard her termed as ugly.
Which did not sit well at all.
Equine misogyny I think I called it.
Commentating with his balls.
Did they fail to see her fierceness?
The nuclear determination in her little white socks?
Her sheer intelligence and grit spelt out,
By her ivory forehead star?
She eyeballed the champion stallion Ghaiyyath,
And was like, ‘No you shall not pass!’
She had me laughing and covered in goosebumps,
As she stormed those final furlongs.
Oh yes, she remembered him alright.
And we remember her.
The Irish superstar mare, our ‘Magical.’
The Queen of Coolmore.
