If she wasnt going 15 wide then she wins for fun

hmmm...I don't think so. It's hard to sugarcoat a narrow win against Third Dawn and the rest of that collection of subpar 3YOs. I'd love to see Rachel Alexandra vs. Stardom Bound right now.

I think its reasonable, if not likely, that she moves forward on dirt. I know she has been winning on synthetic but I like her action for dirt better. Now I dont think she wants to go any further then 9 furlongs and probably would be best suited to one turn sprinting at a mile at Belmont. A race like the Acorn sounds like a perfect spot.

I think that is the problem. She is always going to be 15 wide with her style and that jock. I think she's screwed in a full field on the dirt.

I might take an opposite stance in that maybe Smith realizes that they might be catching up with her and he won't be able to go 10 wide next time. Will hopefully ride a different race. I still pray for her to take on Rachel Alexandra on dirt.

Maybe Iavarone should give Calvin Borel a call.
