I was watching replays and noticed that Vicar\'s in Trouble lost his first race to Ruslana a filly.

mcnatton: I\'m certain Sea Hero lost to a filly in a turf allowance race in his start prior to the Blue Grass. He had two turf starts at Gulfstream as a 3yo. The first was a loaded stakes race full of future graded stakes winners. The other was an allowance race where he lost to this filly. I wish I could remember her name.

louisvilleguy1111: Her name was Icy Warning she beat Sea Hero on the grass. She ended up earning like 600K winning several races.

Edgorman: I\'m an owner and my oldest daughter has blue eyes and brown hair.  When I get my Derby horse I\'ll let you guys know. You might be on to something Jimbo.
Good luck to all.
