I've been looking through a few of CSC's older posts on this subject, and there are certainly some doozies. His tune has certainly changed since this one from 9/24/09:
I brought this up last month, Summer Bird is the only horse that could knock off RA for HOY, though admittidely it is remote with voters most likely swooning at her this yr. If he can win the JCGC convincingly, and then win the BC convincingly he may sway some votes away from her, in essence it's not enough that he wins these 2 races but do so in an Arazi like fashion.
Zenyatta has zero chance at HOY with her 09 campaign.
Not really illustrative of the anti-Rachel Alexandra bias, but it's telling that six weeks ago, Zenyatta had "zero chance" and now she's his rock-solid choice for horse of the year.
This thread is also a fun one. You can substitute Zenyatta for Summer Bird in nearly every case and it's relatively the same argument:

On a complete side note, did anybody notice Jerry Bailey use the word "crossfire" in describing Mastercraftsman's awful move down the stretch on Saturday?
