But, honestly, lets face it .. Rinterval isn't much. She's been beaten to the wire in 20 out of her last 21 races... and Informed Decision gave her a bigger spread in weight.





What if St. Trinians doesn't break into the starting gate and stumble last time? On top of her horrible start and ground wasting ride - she always reportedly lost a shoe.
Rinterval went the half in :50 3/5 today. If Informed Decision could barely beat her when she goes :46 2/5, I would think Zenyatta would have a tough time going by when she goes :50 3/5.

They went fractions of 25.93 - 51.07 - 1:16.37 and Nashoba's Key rallied from last to beat a quality pacesetter by 1.5 lengths when she won the Hirsch.

Again, no one thinks Rinterval belongs on the same racetrack as Zenyatta. Of course Zenyatta is better.
