I have no earthly idea.

All I do know that is both horses ran pretty well on Saturday, although both ran considerably slower than they did at the end of their respective campaigns last year. Personally, I know of no reason why both couldn't run better in a race four weeks down the road.
What did Rachel run on saturday BSF-wise? A 100? Is it really imposible to think that she could run considerably better four weeks later, and that that might be good enough to win the race? I don't think so.

if you and another similar human being were going to run a race , let's say a distance race , last year you both ran a lot were in shape were both winning races and were working out reguarly

now you take off in sept and totally shut down until late jan , you start up training again , you have to change up your regiemen to get ready for a race in april

your oppoent let's say danzig, ran his last race in oct, told you he was going to call it quits and retire , but, you see him out there doing his daily work and not missing a beat all throughout the winter

would you really want to take him on with only 2 1/2 months of training , while he hasn't missed a beat since oct - who do you think would be better fit to run the race???? .................it's the same with horses , these are animals these are not machines with keys in them
