Don't get me wrong I am in the camp that RA is a great filly, do I think she is as good as the margins she is winning at, honestly I don't know, I do believe that if she does go in the Travers this will be the race that may truly defines her, this will be a true test for any worthy champion.

Why would beating Summer Bird and friends be such a big deal? Other then Quality Road and his bizarre 6.5f win, what makes the Travers such a biggie? Unless Quality Road is capable of a 115 BSf at 10f's the race is a matter of fact.. Face it she is just faster plain and simple..
