I hate to get in the middle of this one, but IMO......

1. There is a difference between between being afraid of Rail Trip and not wanting to face him because it might be a taxing effort to beat him. Many people disagree with the perspective of her connections, Sheet players and others. But some feel that an easier well spaced campaign maximizes the chances of a peak at the end of the year. Right or wrong, that was their goal and belief.

2. I don't think Rail Trip's effort for Dutrow says anything about his ability. He was having problems, missed a race, wore an aluminum pad, and was on dirt for the first time. I'm not sure what the plans are for him going forward, but if he's still in training we may learn more about him later on.
