26 is a ripe old age for a thoroughbred, Komnena. She had a good life. :)

She lives on through her offspring, and in our memories.

Anyone who is interested in reading about her, there is a nice article here, in Thoroughbred Times.

I remember being skeptical of the announcers playing her up until I saw her. Then I knew I was looking at a very special horse. I have no doubt she knew she was a queen. I've never forgotten her coiled stillness or that magnificent charge down the stretch.

She was a truly magnificent athlete. What a beautiful girl she was. She won't be forgotten.
