Rachel Who?

Just bringing up Rachel Alexandra's name you are sure to get some type of reaction.

However I really can't see why Rachel should be or could be tied to anything negative.

She put together a great 3-year-old campaign winning her last 9 consecutive races.

She has an owner that has guts therefore Rachel was allowed to take on males and older males and beat them all.

Rachel became a star attraction and surely was the star of this summer's racing.

While we all watched Rachel evolve into a great Filly, she also transcended the entire racing industry.

In the end just watching Rachel run you get the sense that you are watching something great. She gives off a kind of aura where you have to feel that you are watching something special.
