While I want to applaud the connections of both horses for keeping their stars in training, I can't help but think that both connections are doing racing a serious disservice with all the needless posturing: (1) Zenyatta's connections by not testing her to see what her true potential is; and (2) Jess Jackson's continued refusal to reveal his plans with Rachel until the very last minute. (No matter where Rachel shows up on Saturday, don't you think the marketing department of that track would like more than 72 hours lead time to let people know that the reigning HOY will be racing there?) The "white smoke" routine on one hand is becoming as tired as the "too high a mountain" act is on the other side.
