Glencarraig Lady was the last top rated female chaser of her season, maybe even 2 seasons.
She would, with a little luck have been a triple Festival winner, falling at the last upsides the winner in the 1970 RSA chase when a wily old Pat Taaffe told Bobby Coonan to watch his outside while she tripped over the fourth last in the '71 Gold Cup.
Bred by Tom (Lord) Hogan's father she is from the family of Nick Rockett through his great-great grand dam Rose Ravine.
Uncle Tom has no doubt whatsoever as to which mare was better, by the way.
