Can't access the article here, randy

Does it shed any light on the greatest mystery (RA's next start) since the Zodiac killing spree?

Rachel Alexandra pointed for Obeah stakes, after careful consideration...we feel her fitness level is at about 90%, with the layoff she has had, we therefore feel this is the best race for her at the this time.

You got me really excited for a moment because I can make it to Delaware, but not Churchill. Meanie.

I see that on The BloodHorse they have announced the probable starters for the Stephen Foster. If Rachel goes there, Battle Plan will eat her up on the front end. Best to look elsewhere at this time.

I think they have to come to NY.... The fillies who beat her are going to that spot, they did not defeat her by much and this is Rachels chance to show that she is back, and she is the same. If the connections run her at Churchill, IMO its them saying she is not the same, and she might never be. Plus its a G1 vs a G2... If they run her at Churchill and she gets beat, it has to be over... Why continue to push on with her at that point?
