I think only a sucker would take 6/5 on RA right now.
Zenyatta has a huge recentcy edge at this point.
Rachel Alexandra's hasn't run in a long time and Asmussen is a very sub-par layoff trainer.
She has to prove she's still herself in her prep race. Last year - champion 3yo filly Proud Spell came back at Oaklawn on March 12th for her 4yo debut - she was beaten at odds of 1/9 and ran only an 80 Beyer.
Rags to Riches - the previous 3yo champion filly before RA and PS - she was a no-excuse loser to Lear's Princess at 2/5 odds off of a 3+ month layoff after her Belmont Stakes win.
Once RA proves that she's still the same horse she was in the summer of last year .. you'll see her go favorite in that match-up.
