The American SetTwo Mares, One Stretch: The 2016 Distaff Is Still Worth a Replay
Some Breeders' Cup races stay with people long after the results are posted, and the Distaff at the 2016 World Championships is one of them. It was a two-horse fight in the Championships' marquee race for fillies and mares, and neither gave any ground to the other. That kind of race doesn't just settle a title. It shows two top-class mares at their best, stride for stride, in front of an American crowd. This is the Distaff we'd queue up first on a quiet evening.
