WHAT a filly!!! Not only has she won the Kentucky Oaks in a record breaking time, but she then went on to beat the sophamore boys in both the Preakness and the Haskell and between those two she set another record when winning the Mother Goose. Yesterday she beat OLDER boys in the Woodward. She truly is a phenomenon!!!

All that and she only gets a 3lb sex allowance as in the US they tend not to race the Fillies against colts, so its really sporting of the connections to put her in the open races when there are easier options against her own sex!

I was always a big fan of Macho Uno and it was nice to see his son Macho Again making such a good effort in 2nd, giving what is a big strong exceptional filly 8lbs.

It's a shame Rachel will not be going to the Breeders Cup.
