Azeri

Trainer:   Laura de Seroux
Jockey:   Mike Smith
Foaling Date:   5-6-1998
Pedigree:   Jade Hunter - Zodiac Miss by Ahonoora
2003 Record:   5 starts 4-1-0
2003 Grade One Wins:   Apple Blossom Hcp. (Oaklawn), Milady BC Hcp. (Hollywood), Vanity Hcp; (Hollywood)
Note:  Winner of last year's Distaff and 2002 Horse of the Year was unstoppable in 2003 until she met Got Koko in the Lady's Secret at Santa Anita where she finished a disappointing third (moved to second via a DQ). Came up with tendonitis in one of her front legs and has been retired. Not likely to repeat as Horse of the Year since she never faced the males and did lose in her final start.
