At only the halfway point of her four-year-old season she already has a record that sits alongside some of the great female pacers in New Zealand history, with the promise of so much more to come.
Already in that mare's Hall Of Fame is her close relation Adore Me, who Purdon and partner Natalie Rasmussen trained to win a New Zealand Cup in record time and then pace the then fastest ever mile in Australasian history when she clocked 1:47.7 at Menangle.
Adore Me couldn't win an Auckland Cup though, the race sadly ending her career when she injured herself in it two years ago.
Purdon drove both and shakes his head at one following the other so quickly.
"You couldn't believe you could get Dream About Me so soon after Adore Me," said Purdon.
"But it is hard to compare them because I don't want to disrespect either.
"Adore Me was an amazing mare but she (Dream About Me) has done just as much and more at this stage of her career.
"So while we never got to see what Adore Me could have been later in her career because of her injury, maybe we will with this mare."
While mares winning the Auckland Cup are rare -- Dream About Me became just the third in 33 years tonight -- she won't be asked to tackle the open class male pacers too often again this season.
She is off next to Sydney for the Ladyship Mile, which means she will dodge the Miracle Mile and then her connections have a big decision to make: race into the autumn or pull stumps and have a big winter break to set her for the New Zealand Cup, a recipe that worked with Lazarus this season.
She wasn't the only mare to smash her male rivals tonight as Quite A Moment broke the the 2700m mobile trot record in the National Trot, continuing the domination of the open class trot features for trainers Greg and Nina Hope.
They have won almost everything that matters with Monbet in the last 12 months but even with the champ sidelined Quite A Moment simply outstayed her rivals, including hot favourite Marcoola.
The latter pulled too hard in front and was beaten on the home bend.
Earlier in the meeting Ultimate Machete left no doubt as to who is the best three-year-old pacer in Australasia when he was too good for More The Better in the $200,000 PGG Wrightson Sales Series Pace.
He will join Dream About Me and Lazarus, who worked well before the first race today, in Sydney with his aim being the NSW Derby.
