VIDEO: Rachel Alexandra ‘beautiful’ in Monday workout

Posted: Monday, March 08, 2010 9:35 AM

For video of Rachel Alexandra's Monday workout, click here.

Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra breezed four furlongs in :49 on Monday morning at Fair Grounds in a final tuneup for her return race Saturday in the New Orleans Ladies Stakes.

The Medaglia d’Oro filly posted fractions of :25.20 and :37.20 and galloped out five furlongs in 1:01.80 under exercise rider Dominic Terry.

“It was just an easy half,” trainer Steve Asmussen said. “It’s hard to compare her to anybody else so we just gave her an easy half and let him get along with her and it looked like she went beautiful. She’s a beautiful mover. That’s how she runs and that’s what makes her special. She went over the racetrack very well; it was in great shape this morning. That’s all we could hope for. She got the breeze in, did very well, looked good.”

Rachel Alexandra has had seven workouts since January 31 in preparation for her first start of the year, which will be a prep race for her scheduled showdown with Zenyatta in the $5-million Apple Blossom Invitational Stakes (G1) on April 9 at Oaklawn Park.
