I didnt see the figures yet but to point out on the Zenyatta race is the pace was slowish and closing into a slowish pace rarely provides a fast final time, and not sure but being 10 back with 3 furlongs to go at oaklawn with a slowish pace, well there may have been a handful of winners like that all meet...and certainly none were chasing ginger punch. It appears the Zenyatta really is not dependent on the pace, she can go whenever asked. I would not be surprised to see here creep closer to the pace as she gains experience.
