Here We Go

Submitted for your approval...the field.



The field has been blown apart this week with Rachel Alexandra joining the men. For a while, the boys fought the movement to include the filly, but their misgivings gradually seeped away.

Saturday, Rachel Alexandra will be able to run freely- unencumbered, liberated, relieved.

Will she leave the boys in a heaping pile in the paddock stalls?


Seriously, I can't see any horse touching the filly. If she can bounce back after the Kentucky Oaks, she should dominate. Of the others, Pioneerof the Nile has shown true consistency. Musket Man is always in the mix as is Papa Clem. Friesan Fire had a perplexing trip in the Derby. I have to seriously question bringing him to this race considering how badly he was abused in his last.

Big Drama has always had potential, but little to show. General Quarters has been inconsistent. Terrain has shown promise.

The rest? Not so much.

Relax. Dump your work load.

Go for it. It's all good.
