Possibly, but as it stands on paper, her only Grade 1 to date she was beaten by Flashing, who wasn't within 20 lengths of Rachel Alexandra in the Mother Goose.
To be clear, Rachel Alexandra could go in any of those races mentioned and obviously be a contender for the win, but I don't think the Obeah is out of place on that list.
Didn't reigning 3yo champ Skip Away get dusted at odds-on in two races at Gulfstream to start his '97 campaign (having defeated the great Cigar in his final start at 3) and look for relief next out in a listed stakes at Lone Star (coincidentally he lost that race also)?
