The Preakness winner romped to a 191/4-length victory in the $300,000 Mother Goose yesterday, splitting Malibu Prayer and Flashing on the far turn at Belmont Park and pulling away down the long front stretch to win in a stakes-record 1 minute, 46.33 seconds.

The superstar filly, who was back on the track for the first time since knocking off the boys at Pimlico, won her seventh consecutive race dating from last year.

"She's not normal," jockey Calvin Borel said.

Rachel Alexandra, who became the first filly to win the Preakness since 1924, went off as the overwhelming 1-9 favorite in a field of 3-year-old fillies reduced to three by two late scratches. She paid $2.10 in the race over 11/8 miles, with no place or show wagering due to the short field.

Malibu Prayer finished second and Flashing was third.

"I felt she could win by 10 lengths," co-owner Jess Jackson said. "She's something special, one for the ages. I just hope we have more horses to fill the fields and make it more exciting."

The race was made easier when Florida Oaks winner Don't Forget Gil was scratched yesterday morning because of a temperature, and Hopeful Image was held out because she has not fully recovered from a case of colic suffered earlier this week.

A large crowd of 13,352 gave Rachel Alexandra a big ovation in the sunny weather.

"I was very relaxed where she was, just that beautiful stride. She looked great," said trainer Steve Asmussen, who has had the filly in his stable the last two races. "She deserves all the attention and affection."

Jackson hasn't said where he will run Rachel Alexandra next, but it appeared she came out of the race fit. He has mentioned as candidates the Delaware Handicap on July 19, the Haskell Invitational on Aug. 2, and the Travers on Aug. 29 - all races against the boys. She also could run against fillies again in the Coaching Club American Oaks on July 25 at Belmont.
