Default She's Home!!!

Rachel Alexandra Returns Home

Rachel Alexandra is home at Stonestreet today, beginning the next stage of her remarkable recuperation following abdominal surgery in mid-February.

Stonestreet employees decorated her stall with cards from fans as they awaited her arrival; a get-well banner from Fair Grounds Racecourse stretched across the barn, ready to welcome the hard-fighting champion home.

Video here: Rachel's Return Home

Stonestreet just posted a link to this piece that ran on Oaks day. Recent footage of Rachel and her filly are included as well as a word from Barbara and others. It sounds like the operation was more of a risk than I think we knew originally, based on the location of the problem. They claim they've not even talked about whether to breed her, just her recovery.

Great segement; thanks for posting. Though I laughed at the name running under her owner, "Barbara Blank."

i took it as being pretty serious since they kept cautioning everyone that it was very serious and she had a long road ahead of her. i was worried every time that they said there was an update that it was bad news.
