| Alexandra the Great! Filly Beats Boys in Haskell! |
|
What a gal! Rachel Alexandra turned on the speed around the far turn and rolled past the boys once again to win the $1.25 million Haskell Invitational and establish herself as one of the greatest fillies in thoroughbred racing. http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/2009/08/02/sports/AP-RAC-Haskell-Invitational.html
