And to be annoying... Past The Point loves Saratoga. Bullsbay was in career form at Saratoga. Macho Again is a hard-knocking elder who needs a pace setup to win... which he got, yet he still couldn't do it.

What was the alternative, to have riders let her cruise out on an easy lead and hand it to her on a platter? Because it's Rachel and not say Well Armed? Let's get real here it's horseracing, you race to win not finish 2nd or 3rd.
