Rachel and Grace talk

*Location: Stonestreet Farm, Kentucky*

(Phone: RING!)

Hot Dixie Chick: Hello?

Havre de Grace (calling from Saratoga Race Course, New York): Umm hi, I'm kinda nervous to ask this, but can I talk to Rachel Alexandra? This is Havre de Grace, we won the same race the Woodward.

Dixie: Sure. RACHEL!!!! Phone!!!!

Rachel Alexandra: Hello who is this?

Grace: Rachel? My name is Grace, and I just won the Woodward.

Rachel: Congrats! I have actually heard of you talking to my friend Zenyatta. I hear that you and Blind Luck have quite a rivelry going.

Grace: Yep! Anyway, the reason why I asked is for advice.

Rachel: Advice?

Grace: Well yeah. See I have two more races this year, maybe you give me some kind words of encourgement?

Rachel: Well there isn't much that I can say, but keep your head up. Just do your best.

Grace: So just play hard to get?

Rachel: Exactly, Summer Bird and Macho Again wanted to date me, but I told them that I was already taken.

Grace: I guess that would work.

Rachel: As the days past your confidence will keep going up and you'll feel like your the Queen of the World.

Grace: Queen of the World? That sounds freaking cool.

Dixie: Rach, Curlin is on the phone.

Rachel: Grace, I hate to shorten this talk, but my boyfriend wants to talk to me. After all I am the mother of his little super boy.

Grace: Before you go, I just gotta say that as a yearling, we always talked about you. Can I get your autohoof sometime?

Rachel: Sure! Lets talk again soon!

Grace: Yay! Bye Rachel!

Rachel: Bye Grace, congrats!

After she hung up the phone, Grace called her BFF Peyton d' Oro who finished second in the Molly Pitcher behind her dad's sister Quiet Giant. They set up a big party for when they both got back to Delaware Park on their weekend success. Rachel and Curlin had a long talk ending with Curlin being a bit mad since he lost to a filly. Still, he appologized to Rachel and told her to send Grace his congrats since he also won the Woodward. Rachel set up a phone conference with Zenyatta and Rags to Riches to talk to Grace, Blind Luck and a youngster named Hard Not to Like. (That will be coming in a later post, along with a conversation with Macho Again, Bullsbay, Flat Out and Rule).
