We know Bid Me Up does! This young filly has proved to the racing world time and again that this is her sport, and these are her rules. Either step it up or get OUT. Many are optimistic about this filly. Some are a bit skeptical. Does this horse really have what it takes to out run the other queens of racing?
I think so.
Bid Me Up is known for her attitude, the "give me a good challenge or get out of my way" sort that is shown by a few of the current and even among the retired racers. A few say she's just a hot shot that's taking on something too big for her to handle. Yet, with natural talent like hers, why not? After all, she is one of the more successful Spectacular Bid foals. As a two-year-old, she collected over a million dollars in earnings, ending her short season after taking a bad step in the Thanks for Giving Stakes and losing by a length to colt American Flag. She was deemed lame and rested until the beginning of '08, where she stepped back in to continue her rein. In her first race of the season she scared off the competition and easily claimed first. We look forward to the rest Bid Me Up's season, and hope to see her in the Triple Tiara where she might find some actual competition. She's ready and willing to take anyone on. The question is, are you ready for her?
