Sensational (1974–2000) was an American National Champion Thoroughbred racemare bred and raced by the Mill House Stable of Nicholas F. Brady and his siblings.
Going into the month of December 1976, Sensational had had a very good campaign but was up against strong competition for the Eclipse Award with a pair of two-year-olds considered to be ahead of her.
She had won five of her 11 starts that year including two Grade 1 events and would be voted the Eclipse Award as the American Champion Two-Year-Old Filly of 1976.
[1][2][3] At age three, Sensational won two of her 17 starts; her most significant win that year was the victory in the Ladies Handicap at Aqueduct Racetrack.
In 1978 she won twice more out of 16 starts, including a win in the Hawthorne Handicap at California's Hollywood Park Racetrack.
