Default RA works again

Slow work time for most trainers .... very fast work time for an Asmussen comebacker.

Will you be doing a weekly evaluation on Rachel's workout regiment? BTW when is the OBS March official DrugS endorsement show?

Morning workout times mean absolutely nothing to me....just saying that no one should be the slightest bit alarmed by the slowish work times RA is posting.

They would have to give a good deal of weight away to males .. and it's still early in the year ... not that it would matter or anything .. but it would be an easy out for both connections.

The idea is to give as few excuses as possible.

Of course you would send her to Dubai to earn six mil.. BUT you would have sold six times already.. Who other then a VERY wealthy person wouldnt have? Neither Rachel or Zenyatta's owners need 6 mil they need their horse running locally (relatively) were they can get on a plane and enjoy them run.. Why the F would Moss(a jew) be excited to race in Dubai, you think his estate planner is reccommending it? The guy is in his 70's you think it matters if he dies with 480 mil net worth or 485?

I would bet against Zenyatta with glee if she went to Dubai.

I agree with this.

Dubai would be terrible for racing fans...most likely it would knock her out until late fall, when she could be running in important American races around the east coast instead.

Running in America will make fans happy. Heck the east coast has yet to even enjoy her in person!
