There is a good chance that Rachel Alexandra may be in a dogfight in her next start, whenever that may be. If so, that would put the "peak effort" in June in serious jeapardy. The Apple Blossom clash was not going to happen. Now those with a crystal ball will go out on a limb and predict a retirement from one of the to queens. One of the gals may never reach peak form. And the other racing as a 6 year old without a winter break do not figure to last all the way to the Breeders Cup 2010.
