Rachel Alexandra sale pending; Preakness possible?
 

News might already be out...

Rachel Alexandra to the Preakness?
 

http://www.drf.com/news/article/103544.html

A transfer of Rachel Alexandra would raise the possibility of the filly being supplemented for a $100,000 fee to the next jewel of the Triple Crown, the May 16 Preakness at Pimlico. The filly was not nominated to the Triple Crown, and her breeder and co-owner, Dolph Morrison, was adamant in the wake of her Oaks victory that she would not be supplemented to the Preakness or June 6 Belmont Stakes.

That would be pretty crappy.

I'm sorry but it would be way more fun to root for her while being trained by Wiggins and not the ASSMAN! :(

good for the connections though... I bet the money is real nice, for a FILLY! (i'd sell her probably)

What do you think of The Preakness angle Root?

TVG reporting that Jess Jackson is negotiating to buy her for 10 million.

Why in the world would anyone think of selling? Root, need to chime in here....

10 million reasons

I am ready to puke.

Assmuffin--Jesus.

I don't begrudge anyone cashing out per se, but I don't have to like the result afterward. And I won't, if this hold up.

I just read that...holy crap

WOW.... I'd go to the barn... give her a big hug and kisses... maybe some carrots and peppermints... pet her for like 10 minutes and say THANKS GIRL!!! then get the lead rope...


10 million for a FILLY... unreal... especially in this market.

I just wish they would keep her with Wiggins..

Don't they make more holding on to her and racing for a year & then selling?

I was pulling for the Belmont....Preakness too early but she towers over the field. By the way, I am saying she is sold...Big news TBD

No chance. Sell now.

She is a special special filly. I almost couldn't believe my eyes last Friday- but $10 million is a LOT of money, more than any filly has ever sold for as far as I know.

thats a gamble... and it wont be much more than 10 mil anyway...


but 10 mil right now is a sure thing. GREAT business move.

Money talks and __________ walks !

good for your buddies... they are set for awhile.


I would never buy another horse LOL

Has Jess Jackson...heard of the DT Stable horses ?? :$:

this is depressing

You got that right! I'd do it too :$: x 10 million

Scav can ride her and she'll win by 10 on that track LOL


knock on wood

If that is really the number, you HAVE to do it

Does Assmussen ever use Borel? Borel may not have his choice of horses.

So which one is the Satan That Has Ruined Horse Racing?

Morrison and Lauffer for selling, or Jess Jackson for buying?

In the blink of an eye.

um neither :zz:

this is what horse racing is all about... :$: :$:

Stop it, she would win by a head, I could have anchored Secretariat in the Belmont.....

You can't "blame" them for selling--but neither do you have to be happy about it, either.

God, I hate Assmuffin.

LOL but you'd have to wear your pink helmet.

and Magna has the note ?

you sure about that,,hank is still lame

Hard to criticize anyone for taking $10 million. Who would have thought that Borel would be in this position? Do you take the Derby winner or the most likely winner of the Preakness and kill a chance for a Triple Crown?

I would take the one who he said was the best horse he's ever ridden. Do you really want to lose the mount on her for Mine that Bird??

It aint for selling, 10 millie is amazing, that is set your family up for 25 years type money.

It is Asmussen getting this horse, hate that guy. Pompous jerkoff

Can't see how that's ever happened if the Derby winner ran in the Preakness.

Two massive egos. They may think they can win with anybody aboard.

easy mush machine, Hank is just old, lameness happens when you are rocking the age...

Think she improves in her first time with Assman?? :rolleyes:
