All this campaign proves is that she is a little better, female version of Lavaman.

Even Lavaman had a shot at HOY if he won the Classic that year. They're taking a calculated risk that no horse will duplicate what RA did last year.

Not only do they want to keep "the streak" alive but the less wear and tear on her gives them the best chance to win the Classic.

Personally I think she'll lose this Sunday. If she does, maybe it will change their strategy.
