The unbeaten record is everything to her connections. Why risk losing when so many in the racing media are ready to hand her HOY regardless of what she does on Saturday.

She has shipped all the way to Louisville before only to be scratched because of the track. So it isn't like they don't have a history of doing it.

I wouldn't be shocked if they challenge the Classic winner to a race in SoCal. They have no shame.
