On Monday morning, June 7, 2010, a little before 6:00 am, Rachel Alexandra worked four furlongs in :49.20 over a fast track at Churchill Downs in Louisville Kentucky. With jockey Shaun Bridgmohan aboard she set fractional times of :12:60 for the first furlong, :25 for the quarter mile, then galloped out five furlongs in 1:02.80 according to the Churchill Downs clocker. She ranked 15th out of 45 horses that ran at that distance.
"She looked pretty, she looked good," said Asmussen. "Very smooth. That's what we were looking for, something nice and smooth like that."
I save all her workouts, splits etc.. those times appear to look great to me, she was 15 out of 45 tho?
