I guess you might call me a Zenyatta cheerleader, but the bald fact is that while you Rachel cheerleaders were marvelling at that " grueling " first quarter she ran in the Woodward, Zenyatta ran the last quarter in the Hirsch in the identical time and won off a slow pace ...
She has done this more than once--finished in 22 and change, and for the poster that said pace will beat her--she runs the same--fast pace or slow, and it may not be redundant to say that a closer getting up by a head after the speed crawls may excel a pace horse lasting by the same ..
As far as competition, no one can say with a straight face that the male division is any different except for their parts ...
And yes, with the exception of Summer Bird going shorter than his best--someone had to win those G1s ...
But indeed Rachel has added way more accomplishments to her resume, and obviously run a fuller campaign ..
