NYRA working to set up race between Rachel and Zenyatta

[Merlinsky]

Are tracks just throwing it out there that they're willing to draw Zenyatta and Rachel Alexandra with X dollars entirely for the opportunity to put out a press release and get some attention? I don't know that all or even one of them is actually trying to do that but I find it hard to believe any of these attempts to draw Z out of California pre-BC are viable and is it possible that they genuinely believe it'll work? I would just be surprised is all.
