Do you believe she's going to the Pacific Classic as scheduled?

Isn't that an entirely different subject and don't we all understand plans are tenative and fluid?

Yes, which is basically what I said in my original post.

She has been the mark of consistency and has been at or near the top of US horses, male or female, for 3 years now, but a warhorse she is not. Take out her 3-year-old season, and she's averaged less than 4 starts per year. It's incredibly sporting that they keep bringing her back, but they've been careful with her to say the least. In my opinion, it's a good possibility she could be done racing after this one. I hope like heck she's not, but it's certainly not some preposterous thought.

Does any race she has run this year give her a prayer vs the big horse Dortmund?
Plus that other good horse Chrome will be running.
