SHe is cross entered. Doesn't mean she is running. Read the article.

last week you said no way was she running in the classic, then evidently the owner came to his senses, if he has a brain in his head she will run in the classic.

The Ladies Classic on Friday is full of talent including two undefeated fillies. Looks tougher the Classic on Saturday minus
Game on Dude. You've got Royal Delta, My Miss Aurelia, Awesome Feather, Questing, Love and Pride among others. Can't
count how many Grade 1's and money won are in this stellar field.

I never said "No way." I said they had already mapped out a plan and it didn't include the Classic. I included a link with quotes from the main players that supported that. You, on the other hand, are getting all excited and jumpng up and down over a report that they pre-entered in the Classic because it doesn't cost anything, but probabaly won't run in it. Heck, I posted the story with quotes from the trainer saying they are just leaving their options open and it would take a miracle for her to actually run there, and you still see that as proof they are running her in the Classic.
You know, if you would take the time to read what people say instead of hearing what you want to hear, you would see that RD's connections have not changed their plans. They have not decided to run in the Classis. They are just leaving the option open because they can, not because that is where they plan to go.

Royal Delta was impressive winning last year's Ladies' Classic at Churchill Downs and likely will attempt to make it back-to-back victories this year but Leon felt it couldn't hurt to pre-enter the daughter of Empire Maker in the Classic as a second preference.
"He just wants to leave his options open," trainer Bill Mott said. "We're not leaning in that direction, but he said if it doesn't cost anything, why don't we do it? I told him, 'Fine, we'll cross-enter and look at it next week.'"

When asked what it would take for Royal Delta to change course and run in the Classic, Mott said with his typical dry humor, "If they scratch down to three horses."
