Default Rachel is King

Right now Rachel is the star.

It will be a shame if the Classic shapes up like last year with some of the best European talent taking a serious shot, and her not participating. It will also be anti-climactic and disappointing if Rachel does not at least run in the biggest dirt races along the schedule.
Jackson has been bold so far with the Preakness and Haskel, I guess we have to hope he continues. Maybe she ships to Hanshin in Japan to get the Dirt Cup? Obviously Dubai World Cup is out of the question as this years world cup will be on synthetic with probably an improved cast featuring some of the same types of hard hitters that will be at this years Classic.

Won't the new Dubai surface be a totally new one?

Hmmm...just read this:

Dude is ahead of me--RA v. QR v. Zenyatta in the Woodward!

If you can get me that race, you can cancel the fricking BC "dirt" (sic) races for all I care.

This is the first you thought of this being a possibility (in fantasy-land)?

I had no thought of it whatsoever, possible or not. Read my post earlier.

The point is, every race is a possibility for either of them.
