So Rachel runs in either the Travers or Woodward beat colts or older AGAIN for the 3rd time and now we need to see some Group 2 winning gelding beat her on Pro Ride or she wins and everyone says all she beat was a couple of Birdstones and a washed up G2 euro slug.. Your kidding right you want it both ways.. Look IF she beats the colts in the Travers and or the real men in the Woodward whomever they are or aren't she will have been the best the sport had on DIRT in 2009.. Were she stacks up vs. Seattle Slew, Secretariat, Affirmed Spectular Bid Cigar Winning Colors or Personal Ensign will always be debateable. None of that is important it's only important to watch her do well vs. the best the sport has on her best surface.. If you feel that she HAS to try Pro Ride again you have to be of the opinion that she has to try grass as well it the same friggin argument.

You keep making assertions that the Euros that came last year were slugs. Why is that? Where she stacks up against the horses of yesteryear will always be debatable but her position as possibly the best horse of the poly era now and going future could not be achieved without a definitive poly victory. It is all rather unsporting to skip a race you may lose because a different horse lost on that surface which may or may not have been the cause of that loss.
