Geez, so it's Z and her connections who are to blame for RA's defeat on Saturday and consequently, missing the AB. I am totally amazed this thinking that connections of another horse has so much influence on RA and what her connections choose for her. A few days after 01/16th, when Mr. Moss announced Z would run in 2010, her first two tentative races were announced. In JANUARY. Mr. Cella and the media undertook trying to get the two mares together at that point, since both had raced there, dirt, etc. JJ/SA initially said RA would not be ready. Should have stayed with that instead of playing a PR game that backfired. I am sorry that RA lost, but it's not about her loss for me. It is how she looked. I hope her connections can get things headed in the right direction.

However, this blame crap because she lost is beyond ridiculous. Take it up with JJ or dial him up and leave him a message. He's who some of you need to talk to. His name is on RA's papers, not Jerry Moss nor John Shirreffs.
