Default Rachel Alexandra to grace pages of Vogue

http://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-raci...e-bird-gallops

Rachel Alexandra's gonna be in the fashion magazine in August. Anna Wintour is a fan of hers now. Hey if that gets any of her readers or clients to take a second look at racing, by all means. I'm sure with AW's rather demanding eye, we should get some nice beauty shots of RA so I'm looking forward to that.

I saw this - what an interesting concept, how cool!

Vogue has featured a T Bred in the past - the horse's name was Fashion Rocks and they had a few pages with the horse - only picked that particular horse because of the name.

Hopefully, RA's mane won't be all tied up in the shots.

Speaking of horse racing appearing out of nowhere in the mainstream - there's an ad for joining YouBet on the home page of the Huffington Post.

They used Rachel as the point of reference for this article for the world's tallest horse:
