A long telephoto lens makes the horses behind her appear much closer than they really are.

altho i like rachel alexandra, comparing her to ouija board is an exercise in futility. i don't agree that OB was the 'best horse over three years'-but she did take on top competition throughout her career-something RA has yet to do. and ouija did that and won. too soon to say what rachel alexandra will accomplish. she has talent and ability; i'm very impressed with what she's done thus far.
the connections have big plans for her the rest of the year, including taking on older females in the delaware handicap. they plan to end the year in the bc-but no plans according to them to take on the opposite sex.
enjoy her and her efforts, but let's not get too silly about it just yet.

B. C. on poly proves nothing in my book.

On the tgraph rotw Oaks/Derby seminar Dr. Brown said he was asked to identify a filly for purchase last year . It was Rachel Alexandra and the party did buy 50 % but failed to pay Brown his commission, he claims . He hopes that is settled in the Ky. courts.
