It is equally pure speculalion to say she can't .

She is very facile on dirt.

Rachel proved something LAST year so it may be meaningless to imply that she continues to be less than perfect on her preferred surface .

You are speculating ansd so am I--the difference is that until it is done, neither knows, but one record is flawless on both surfaces .

She can and will beat males on dirt, just as she beat them on synthetic .

My opinion, specualtion etc .

There is however more evidence that she will than she will not .

There was a quote I remembered reading on the Eskendereya thread. It went something like:

"beyers are for clowns. 88"

Who said that?

This evidence being? She has never raced against males on real dirt, yet you are ready to reach back to years past to find male horses that can challenge her on real dirt.

"You would have to reach in time and quality to find a FEW that I would question that she could beat . . ."
