yeah, true it's too soon to know about this years horses. but the fact that risk won the derby, and then placed in the preakness and belmont puts her in the lead of the tc winning fillies group in my opinion. of course, rachel may not yet be done. for her to come back to the belmont if they so decide, and win that....i'd love to see it. i would love to see that happen. but...if it were me, i'd give her a bit of a break, and then take on the travers.
