Totally fabulous video from start to finish!! Made me cry. *sniff* Can't believe I'm the only comment. This is a great video of a highly memorable race and fabulous little horse and her jockey, her trainer, and jockey's family. Her Dad's reactions were off the charts, brought tears to my eyes.

I know what you mean. I had a big bet on Lauren and Barbie that day. Rest In Peace ‘Barbie’ she passed away in a training accident in May 2019 if you were wondering. Also her daughter sold for $1 million at the 2019 Magic Millions sales on the Gold Coast and will be trained by James Cummings and the Godolphin team www.racing.com/news/2019-01-12/news-godolphin-puts-millions-cash-to-good-use

www.racing.com/news/2020-02-19/news-stojakovics-diamond-journey This article here contains an interview with Lauren as she describes the events of that special day in 2013 with her amazing filly and also regrets about her career as a jockey which ended in 2017. Still brings a tear to my eye seeing Lauren and Barbie cross the line powerfully in first place and Lauren’s family especially her dad just erupting with emotion. Simply put as Lauren told Barbie just after she won this prestigious race “You’re brilliant”
