"AND THEY'RE OFF in the match race of the century, the filly didn't have the best start but her jockey isn't worried. The first quarter of a mile is in twenty-one and two which is blazing. The colt is trying to take the lead but Y/n isn't about to let that happen as she takes the lead by half a length in the backstretch." I listened quietly to the announcer "at the half pole the time is forty and two-fifths seconds with the filly about a length in front with the colt pushing even harder. As they near the far turn they're neck and neck" I glanced over at Juniparoah as my Jockey slowed me down so he right alongside me then was ahead of me "Y/n's jockey looks like he has slowed her down so she doesn't have to take such a fast pace going through the turn, but why when it could cause her the race?" I took a quick look at my jockey and he looked down at me then whispered: "not yet we have to wait" so I waited "three-quarters of the way through and the colts in the lead by two lengths with a time of one minute flat. The filly is inching closer by the second as they near the stretch." I locked onto Juniparoah and came up alongside him as the turn started to end "and down the stretch, they come in the match race with the filly taking the lead by ten" my jockey kissed to me and shook the reins so I took the bit and ran with everything I had "here she goes to fifteen Juniparoah giving everything he has but he can't catch her she's now twenty in front and still surging" I was pretty much at the finish line and that's when I heard it "and look at this a super filly and a queen she IS THE CHAMPION" is all I heard as I crossed the finish line... twenty-four lengths in front of Juniparoah.

My trainer leads me to the winner's circle to get my picture taken, when that was finished I got put in the hot walker to help cool down and once I was cooled down they cleaned me off and loaded me into the trailer to go home.  When I got back I was unloaded from the trailer and put in my stall to rest but I couldn't handle it and kept banging on my stall door until someone finally showed up.

"Can't stand being in here can you?" I nodded my head and my groom laughed "ok let's get you out of here before you bang up your legs or hurt yourself real bad" he hooked a lead rope to my halter and lead me to the paddock, as he unclipped my lead rope I took off like a shot for the fence that separates the bulls and horses as I stopped my back feet slid behind me then I yelled for Ferdinand but all my groom heard was me winnie then saw Ferdinand come running out of the barn and straight to me which made him laugh "I see you've made a friend Y/n" I looked at my groom as he walked away then back to Ferdinand "I raced my old stable mate." he smiled "no way. Did you win?" I nodded "by twenty-four lengths" he laughed "I knew you could do it" I blushed and pretty soon here came the rest of the bulls to talk to me.

"Hey Y/n I heard they'll be sending you to to the US to race over there is that true?" I laughed sheepishly as Ferdinand looked at me like I betrayed him "y-yeah it's true. They want me to run in the triple crown and become the first filly to win it." their eyes got wide "is it hard?" I sighed "yeah it is, you have to race three times in five weeks each different distances and the last one really tests you. Not only that you need to earn points for the first race so that means racing in multiple other races before that." they stood there with their mouths open and you giggled making Ferd blush and the others close their mouths "that's crazy man...And they think you could do that?" I grinned "they don't think, they know."
