I'm dying to find out just how good RA is when she has to face more than 2 opponents dueling themselves into the track as in the Mother Goose at Belmont or having SB waste himself engaging Munnings in the Haskel...Taking gender out of the equation RA is very good racehorse period, but isn't she also hyped to some degree, being that her only true tough race when conditions were not ideal to her was the Preakness...

Respectfully, Tim Ice wants no part of Rachel and would will avoid her at all costs.You think getting whooped by Rachel will help get those broodmares into the breeding shed? I like Summer Bird a whole bunch. Won a lot of money on him in the Belmont and think he is very solid G1 colt. BUT he can't beat Rachel with a head start. As my friend said recently, "Rachel is reminding everyone what a truly good horse is".
