I just read that she has passed away at age ten.
Outstanding sprinter that held her own in any company, male or female.
The Truth indeed...RIP

I remember her running 2nd in the Breeders Cup F&M Sprint a week after winning a state restricted race a Belmont.

Not the best training decision, but she almost bailed the trainer out. She was a really tough horse.

Sorry to hear this, may she RIP. I road a horse named Verdad two years in a row at a summer camp I went to as a kid, so that made me a fan of more recent filly version.

Here's the scoop (colic, again): https://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-racing/articles/240091/champion-female-sprinter-la-verdad-dies-due-to-colic

Hm. That should be "rode" not "road". Can't edit for some reason
