Talk:Rachel Alexandra

Wouldn't she be considered a mare by now? 2006 was three years ago, horses stop growing at three years of age. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.201.235.146 (talk) 00:04, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

No, female horses are considered fillies until they reach age five. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.80.2.96 (talk) 01:23, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Can we add the $2 WPS pays to this table? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.6.175.122 (talk) 03:32, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Woodward Stakes

There is a reference under the Woodward which suggests Rachel was not 100% on the day of the Woodward accordingly to Jess Jackson further the referenced article says Clavin was bucked off. The source is from "scienceblogs.com/grrlscientist/" which isn't exactly the most credible citation. I have searched as much as I can to find any other electronic source which used the same purported Jess Jackson quote but cannot find it. The Daily Racing Form, Thoroughbred Times, BloodHorse, Brisnet none have any suggest suggestion she was not 100% that day at any time. It would be my recommendation that the comment be removed unless validated by another credible source and not a blog entry.

Additionally the mention of the jockey being tossed off in the post parade is untrue. Calvin jumped off on his own will when she began to rock. Colloborative in what occured or by Calvin's own choice, either way to say that he was bucked off means she put wanted the rider off. That was simply not the case. --Kellsboro Jack (talk) 13:39, 11 September 2009 (UTC)

5 years old now
I believe that definitely makes her a mare. Tad Lincoln (talk) 21:18, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
