I resigned myself a long time ago that Rachel and Zenyatta will never meet (and the whole detention barn thing is a weak excuse for Zenyatta not to race in New York). Working from that assumption, IMO, the only appropriate spot for Rachel and the "good of the game," which Jackson says he's in this for, is the Travers, Kensei or no Kensei.
