Uh, yeah, right.

The only ones worrying more about that will be the connections of MTB.

Pioneerof the Nile stinks...he ran the same typically average race that he always ran, and on top of that, should have finished lower had he not impeded a few other horses. Pioneerof the Nile will be off the board in the Preakness, that much I am confident about. As for the rest, who knows how it will play out.

i disagree, i think he is very consistent, at least this year... he has palced ahead of all top 3yo colts (except QR). If he is average? what does that say about the competion?

he only think that will get in her way is traffic or the finish line.

The closest any of these colts will get to her is on the track Saturday. None of these will get within miles of her at the breeding shed.

As for the race, I agree it will be a 3 pronged attack keeping her honest...........Big Drama and Take The Points early, Pioneer and Friesen Fire on the far turn and Musket Man and Mine That Bird in the stretch. I'm playing against her.

She wont be rating 5 or 6 horses back she will be in the top 3 just not sitting on big dramas flank. If they go 46 for the half. There wont be many horses around her. They will all be sitting back and stalking. If rachel is at the front of this group, which she should be, then you wont stop her. If she can sit third off the speed horses, she will win for fun.

i am going F.F / DRAMA / M.T.B.....in a tri box. as a big pioneer fan i finally realized what alot of people have been saying for the past six weeks.......he lacks a burst. general quarters? seems like a slow horse. if the filly wins, so be it.

Default Breeding?

Not really sure any of these are the type that would get bred to the likes of her.

I agree totally. The 20 length win was ultra-impressive, but I don't think she can re-produce that race coming right back. I think it's a golden opportunity to find a more than generous priced winner and even play some tickets with her off of the board.
