Reading the above, you may be thinking "Well, she has won over half of her career races, and that's over thirty wins, but she hasn't won all too many awards, has she?". For those of you that doubt, let's take a look at her major race wins, going by year, and a sum of her individual record for that year.

This mare was the absolute top class turf sprinter and miler during her time. Quoted from Snowflake, "Soon Seraphim (her half sister) will be destroying the track as well!". This impressive filly nearly became a grade one in her first year of racing. She's won over half of her lifetime races, and every season save for her four year old season ended with winning at least half of her starts. Desiree won three different Breeders Cup Races. She placed second in the Star Festival at two, second in the Breeders Cup Turf Sprint at four and third in the extremely prestigious Cox Plate at five. She was a champion for her entire career.
