RA caught them when they'd be most primed this year to give her a tussle and she still beat them.

Of course, as usual, Haskin says it best: http://cs.bloodhorse.com/blogs/horse...he-rescue.aspx
So the trainers of Macho Again and Bullsbay had their respective charges primed for their best efforts in...The woodward? Really? No disrespect Merlinsky but thats laughable.

Lets face it-neither horse is very good. We want to heap huge praise on the filly for holding these two horses off and she deserves a measure of credit for doing that. Lets not pretend though that those horses are something they arent. Yesterday seemed to back up that point.
