El jockey Borel vencedor del Derby de Kentucky, con Mine That Bird, destacó sus razones para haber preferido continuar com Rachel Alexandra
"We're very happy to have the opportunity to continue to ride Rachel Alexandra....I've had the chance to ride some great horses, but she is one of the most special horses I've ever been around. I appreciate the faith that Mr. Jackson and Mr. (Harold) McCormick have shown in me, and we can't wait to be there wherever she runs next."
