My biggest regret for not being there was Rachel's win in the Woodward. I was there for Rags to Rich's Belmont and I'm positive that Rachel's Woodward had to be more electric.

Rachel's win in the Woodward had the most electric feel in the air that I can ever remember...I'm telling you...ya could feel it in the air
