Rachel Alexandra back to work in morning

Horseracing Betting Lines

06/21/2010 - Louisville, KY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Reigning Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra put in her first workout at Churchill Downs on Monday morning since her victory in the $200,000 Fleur de Lis Handicap. The four-year-old filly breezed a half-mile for trainer Steve Asmussen.

"She went fine," said Asmussen. "It's a ridiculously hot morning, you know. That's a big concern. It's time to get out and go north."

With Shaun Bridgmohan in the saddle, Rachel covered the four-furlongs in 51 1/5 second and galloped out five-furlongs in 1:05 1/5. At 6:30 a.m. (et) it was 81 degrees when the champion took to the track.

"I think we've got to get out of this weather," Asmussen commented. "The flag's stuck to the pole today. She acts like the rest of us do right now -- it's hot. Her weight's good and she's very sound, and her strength is good. But it's hot. We'd all feel better if it was about 20 degrees cooler."

The original plan for Rachel was for her to travel to Saratoga after the end of the Churchill Downs meet on July 4. Asmussen is now thinking about shipping the filly and his other horses earlier due to the hot weather.

Rachel won the Fleur de Lis by 10 1/2-lengths on June 12, her first win of the year. She came up short in her initial two starts of 2010. She was second to Zardana at the Fair Grounds in the New Orleans Ladies Classic and runner-up to Unrivaled Belle at Churchill Downs in the La Troienne.

Owned by Stonestreet Stables and Harold McCormick, the filly has career earnings of $3,216,730 with 12 wins in 17 starts.
