I don't think it's pointless to question motives, we had enough of that with the 'Cheney' Administration.

I don't think anyone should be taken as the gospel, someone in the industry should have asked these questions. We are not talking 60 mins type of journalism just logical, honest questions.

Alright, it just speculation. But this is about what race Rachel is going to run in; it's not a matter of life and death.

As to whether we need to interrogate him about it, I'm not convinced that the reasons he has stated are the real reasons he's opted for the Woodward, but unless you think he's going to publicly state "I opted for the Woodward because I'm afraid of the distance and the colts competing in the Travers," what's the point of trying to get into his head.

At least they didn't run into Careless Jewel on short rest.

Why, cause then no one would have noticed how far back it was from Careless Jewel to third place?

They have similar styles and she would not have won that race without a fight.

You look far better beating up on older males than winning a stretch battle with a 3yo filly who doesn't bring in a fancy resume.
