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.

That's nothing new my distaste of Rachel , I doubt whatever I say will be considered objective when it comes to Rachel, Summer Bird and now Zenyatta. At this rate there will be no more horses to discuss...You are a sharp poster NTamm so this puzzles me how you could ignore the obvious, did you seriously think Regal Ransom was going to be a factor in the race as a win prospect? Did it occur to you that Rip Van Winkle may just not have liked the surface as per other Coolmore failures in Classics, these 2 were the only 2 pace threats and they just happen to be very unrelible to cite as a collasping pace because they could have gone 25 - 50 and still lost. Is it just possible the closers were better this time around...
