I know. Confuses the logic. Rachel Alexandra is not Bernardini...ie, she's not a false star, but the real thing.

EDIT: Actually to be factually correct, I didn't say Bernardini had "no shot" of beating Invasor, and before the Classic, implied that he could just be a freak. I also noted that he turned into a pig the only time he got looked in the eye...which he, as we all remember, did again in the Classic. Rachel does not have that same question to answer.

Bernandini was an extremely fast colt. He was far from a fraud.
