Beholder (horse) edit
- ... that Beholder, a Thoroughbred race horse, was the first filly to win both the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies and then the Breeders' Cup Distaff?

The article is new, long enough to qualify, well-referenced, neutral and does not appear to contain any copyvis. Hook is short enough and formatted correctly. QPQ not required. The cite for the hook fact says first filly to win those races in "consecutive years". I know she is the first filly to do it at all, but it would be better if a cite was found to support that? --Bcp67 (talk) 13:22, 10 November 2013 (UTC)
- Hmm. Subtle, but good point. I'll see what I can find. Sit tight! Montanabw(talk) 18:01, 10 November 2013 (UTC) Answer: I can prove it by a comparison of the two races on the official breeders cup site: fillies and distaff, but does that constitute WP:SYNTH? (I'll see if I can find another source that did this and said it) Montanabw(talk) 18:13, 10 November 2013 (UTC)
- (I could also just add "in consecutive years" if that doesn't work, I think it will still be under 200 chars?) Montanabw(talk) 18:16, 10 November 2013 (UTC). Follow up have two sources, will one work? [1] and [2]
