Helena Handbasket and My Girls!

Here's a photo of a lovely 2006 filly named Helena Handbasket. She is a half-sister of Ginger Punch, both sharing the same dam, Nappelon by Bold Revenue. Helena Handbasket's dad is Red Bullet who won 4 of his 5 starts, including winning the Preakness Stakes over Fusaichi Pegasus who won the Kentucky Derby!

HH was put up for syndication last October, after her sister won the Breeders Cup and set herself up for the Eclipse Award for Champion Older female (at age 4). I could put myself in a lottery for a share in her and pay the privilege of $7,500 to own 2 1/2 percent of her. She's pretty, I'll grant you. Pretty as a picture! You can read more about her conformation and her history (imagine having a history and you're not even 2!) at the following link:
