i wouldn't necessarily bet rachel over zenyatta in the bc. zenyatta certainly is a very good horse. and of course she's shown true ability over the cali surface. the reason i would pick her over rachel in the bc is the same reason why i wouldn't bet POTN tomorrow.
we know zenyatta can run on dirt. so, the best matchup between these two distaffers would be on that surface. no excuses then for either....altho i've always thought a top four year old holds an edge over a top three year old. would love to seem race, that's the only way to know which was better.
