I don't expect to see Z race outside of SoCal a third time. Shirreffs has already expressed his fear of shipping Z over the Rockies, and we know she will likely be scratched again if she faces an off track. Shirreffs isn't going to waste flying her over the Rockies again just to find an off track at one of those real dirt courses. He is going to need an ironclad guarantee of dry weather before he puts her on a plane again, and we all know there are no ironclad forecasts, especially in the weather business.
So this will be her schedule for the rest of the year: Vanity, parade at Hollywood, Clement Hirsch, parade at Del Mar, Zenyatta Hcp, parade at Oak Tree, retirement announcement the week of the BC, post-retirement parade at Hollywood. |

Have started thinking about what to say if she wins her 17th. Any suggestions?

Or, F. U. Stone Gossard! Or, does anyone here have amphetamines to help wake me up? Or, she has the speed of Ruffian, the class of Personal Ensign and the will to win of Peppers Pride? |

Actually I respect the Fat Man. I respect his anger. I respect his insanity. I even respect his opinion. But, you still may be right about my head exploding. |

One of the tip offs that a person has Narcissistic tendencies is when they use a question mark behind the word "happy." It allows one to hack away as they reluctantly admit to something. It's a way to distract attention away from their being wrong. It's a Narcissistic defense gadget.

Actually, I'm feeling pretty miserable right now. I've been fighting this cold for a good part of the week, and feel like ****. Thanks for asking. Moreover, I've lost 5 one number exacta photos in a row (4 today, alone). Some of these beats were ridiculous. This translates to quite a chunk of my bankroll. Once again, thanks for asking. :rolleyes: |

"Wow..what a race.....I don't know what was quicker....Zenyatta's late kick today or me getting canned by Martin Garcia". |

Thanks......I couldn't remember that horses name. Is Pepper's Pride a male? If so he should breed with Zenyatta. Could you imagine the number of big races their offspring could duck ? |

BTW's "I" collection:
I promise you will no longer be losing money on him. but suggesting I have in any way " pissed " on this takes the cake. I want them, and......... I'm the one who didn't particularly agree...... I didn't say it wasn't but... I understand all that....... I hope they do great but ...... I don't agree. ..... I fail to see how ..... I'm all for what's good ..... I don't understand how it's ..... I understand how it should .... I won't apologize ..... I need to correct.... Since I brought it up.... You're really desperate...aren't you? I'm sure, as always,.. I read that article..... That's actually not correct..... I didn't need any further confirmation..... I can only infer..... You be (also be) incorrect about that..... I bet she does.... You apparently haven't....... I would imagine that...... I have also been friends with ...... I just happen to know ....... I figured that It was on my Birthday.....which is extremely important I saw ... I honestly am far from convinced .... Why doesn't it surprise me that you think 2 + 4 = 7? ....... I apologize for answering your question. I apologize if this seems nasty, but sorry if I don't respect ..It only made me pity you even more. ........ I couldn't even ........ Oh, wait, I got it. You're just ... And why should I care?... You used to be much smarter... adults are talking....so keep quiet. I just don't think someone should .... I assume...

I am pretty far from being a big Zenyatta fan, but comparing her to that stupid, worthless, piece-of-crap, New Mexico horse - even in jest - is just going way too far.
Zenyatta's connections did make two different attempts to run their horse against the best out there: the BCC and the Apple Blossom. In one instance she ran against the worst BCC field ever on her preferred surface, and in the other one nobody ended up showing up to run against her. Those are hardly the connections' fault. I actually still like Zenyatta....despite her ardent fans' inadvertent attempts to force me to root for her to lose (just so they will shut the hell up). |

thing is, much as zenyatta has done, you have to admit she hasn't done it vs much, and that better races could have been found to showcase her amazing talents. if you want all the marbles, you have to go after them-they haven't. most of her races have been vs suspect competition. yes, she raced what showed up, but she only went out of her usual restricted competition once. why not again? i'm hoping once they break the winning streak, and one assumes she will (i posted once, some time back that maybe she'd stay around long enough to do so), that they try something different again. |
Back to the topic, are people really excited about Rail Trip? The same Rail Trip that won against stiffs while tracking a pace similar to those set in two earlier maiden claiming races on the card?
