Gutsy, yes - gutted? I doubt it. The gallop out was pretty good, but adrenalin may have been rushing.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysO_Fhc8Fpw I saw Rachel the next day and several times after that. She didn't look like she was in any trouble as a result of that race. I think that long layoff stuck in a stall at a track with abomindable weather was the biggest factor in her not coming back better in her 4 year old year. The PE took a toll on her despite the bullet works at near deserted Oklahoma track.
