Rachel Alexandra - 2009 Martha Washington Stakes 

One of the great horses of all time with the rare combination of speed and staying power!!

I watched her in that race and it was obvious that she was something very special!! I fell in love with her too!!

This never gets old!

I would bet millions on Rachel Alexandra. I mean she absolutely dominates every race.

she can run anywhere she is so good

That is a big conclusion to draw from just one lifetime start on the dirt.

Agree, she is the best 3 yr old without a doubt. Her Oaks time was off-the-chart fast and her win in the Preakness was impressive out of gate 13 in which she beat the derby winner, MTB. The best in racing of any age are the two fillies, RA and Zenyatta. I thought Zenyatta should have been Horse of the Year last year, not just the best filly. Hopefully, this year RA will take the top prize. She has earned it.

I think she is the best Filly in training, definately the best dirt filly i've ever seen, would like to see how she gets on in the breeders cup classic as Zarkarva won the Arc against the colts and older horses last year, she is the best Turf filly and if Rachel won the BCC then i think that would equal that in comparison.

If Rachel gets to sit off a pace like this and she is 100% fit than Zenyatta will have too much ground to make up as the last furlong was run in under 12 seconds in this race without being asked. Of course, the competion will be much stronger with such a big purse!

Maybe...we have to see how the second part of the year develops, but right now she seems to be be the strongest choice

i wish they would close every casino at race tracks it kills the racing vibe

no...she has won 6 in a row

1 mile

how lond is this track

I woudn't be so sure that Zenyatta runs better in synthetics. Did you see her Apple Blossom?

He trolls RA videos bashing everyone he can but never see him on a video of Zenyatta. Shame this horse doesn't deserve to be downgraded.

RA has no fear of zenyatta I can assure you of that zanyatta is really good, and not to be knocked but RA IS IN A LEAGUE OF HER OWN,,,, HELL YOU COULD MAKE AND ARGUMENT FOR HER WINNING THE TRIPLE CROWN, AND SHE CAN GET BETTER BEING SHE IS ONLY A 3 YEAR OLD. Ask any horseman which horse would he rather have zenyatta or ra and I bet that 90% will say that later.

I remember my dad dropping his whole check on a superfecta. I think it came out 800 bucks. It was a 75 dollar super. We ate good for a couple months lol
