Danzig its not the point I was making. IP has now run 2 gigantic races and her other race they crawled up front over a speed favoring track. She is clearly a stayer, she has gone 1 1/2 on turf and ran well, she has freaked at 1 1/8 on dirt and now 1 1/4 on dirt. She has to be considered legit competition.

to rachel?? how many horses now have you said that about? it seems every horse that wins these days, you're immediately on here asking if they're the one to take down rachel. it's odd.

i hadn't replied to you much at all since your latest reappearance. i think i'll go back to that tactic.

2 horses.... QR and now her. I still beleive QR is that good. Rachel has done nothing at 1 1/4... Im sure she is just as good at the distance, but that does not take away from what IP has done. I think your being a bit unfair with the last 2 sentences. If you choose to do that, then fine. Im just discussing the horses.

Do you think that if the Kentucky Oaks or the Mother Goose would have been another 1/8th of a mile, it would have really made a difference? If they had been, she might have won by 30 instead of just 20. Would you have doubted her chances if she had run in the Alabama?
