Rachel Alexandra has six-furlong work
Rachel Alexandra put in her last major move before her scheduled return to racing Tuesday morning at Fair Grounds, working in company and going six furlongs in 1:13.60.
Trainer Steve Asmussen was pleased with the work, though it was a little slower than 1:12 he was aiming for.
"I was hoping she would go a little quicker," said Asmussen. "The main thing is that she is healthy, and this is a step to getting her back to her previous level."
