Champion mare She Feels Pretty’s 2026 season has gone into a holding pattern.
Had her winter schedule proceeded as planned, She Feels Pretty would be in steady training by now with one of trainer Cherie DeVaux’s strings. Instead, the 5-year-old mare remains at the Ocala, Fla., farm where she has been stabled since shortly after a second-place finish Nov. 1 in the Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Turf. Despite that defeat, She Feels Pretty won an Eclipse award as champion female turf horse of 2025 for the Lael Stable of Roy and Gretchen Jackson.
