The dummy probably feels like he's been outmaneuvered once by Moss in November, once by Shirreffs cleverly catching him with a cranked up dirt horse at FG, and once by himself when he shrewdly bought himself an extra 6 days in order to agree to a race he ducks.... I think he's outmaneuvered a 4th time by not going because his horse would probably win.

Yeah, Cella pulled a fast one on him by moving the race back a week. After he did that, Jackson should have waited a few weeks, then pulled out of the AB and said she was behind her training and wasn't going to be ready for the AB without sacrificing her form for most of the year. What the RA camp said on Sunday was just ridiculous.
Jackson can turn things back to his favor by again being aggressive with RA. Choose among the Met Mile, Foster, Salvator Mile, Iselin, Whitney, and Woodward for possible starts. She doesn't have to beat males each time, just not embarrass herself (Lady' Secret was 1 for 4 against males in 1986). If she does that, Moss is going to have do more than beat up on the usual suspects in SoCal.
