I think what is lost or taken for granted is the ease in which she went by the best dirt/synth field of the yr, we can argue surfaces but you put a very good horse on a big stage and she exceeds expectations, that's something great in my books.

Your passionate distaste for Rachel Alexandra and your incessant fervor to prop up Zenyatta clearly makes you incapable of objectively analyzing the way the Classic played out.
Look at the chart and see where the horses on the lead finished. It'll become very clear.
Look, the Classic was a very good effort from an exceptional horse but to turn it into some other-worldly performance like you seem to be trying to do is irrational. In truth, Zenyatta's Classic win was probably about the fourth most impressive Classic win in the last six years.
