Not so fast, my friend. The question was whether any other horse in training in 2009 could have navigated the Woodward or Preakness in the same fashion as Rachel did. That does not mean she should be horse of the year.
Now my turn for one question: in light of the Breeders' Cup Classic result, do you believe that if Zenyatta had been the horse coming after Rachel in the Woodward, as opposed to Macho Again, that Rachel still would have won the race?
