I don't know I would give the Alabama some serious consideration. I know they won't but to be able to stretch her out to a 1 1/4 without any threat of losing and still being able to snag The Alabama title as well as easy money would be awfully tempting.

As much as I want to see her run a mile and a quarter, I think she has nothing left to prove against other 3YO Fillies.

It adds very little to her HOY resume, which is already impressive--what is the point?
I think the Woodward is most likely. No filly has ever won this race. The roster of past winners is practically a Who's Who of the horses enshrined across the street. They can still try to win the Travers with Kensei. If they manage that his stallion value goes up substantially--it would have no such corresponding real value for RA. It also gives them an extra week. Without a date with the BC they can and should be generous with their scheduling.

Less money for one in the Alabama, and though she would be 1-20, the thought of losing to that field would do serious damage to the reputation they are building. There simply isn't any upside to winning. If she loses the Woodward, it would be disappointing, but even a super filly gets a little pass on that.
