This is a straw man (straw horse?) argument. Nobody's hating her. If you can't like Zenyatta I really question your ability to enjoy this sport. She's a four legged amazon with the dancing quality of Ginger Rogers or perhaps Cyd Charisse. I'm pretty sure the Breyer people somehow turned one of their figures real. The frustrating thing is but she and you-know-who have things to prove this year. We're not at the stage where either has gone where they could go or tried what they could've. A variety of reasons for this, but I bet either or both had been tempted by the Stephen Foster--a tight finish in the Apple Blossom would've led to a rematch cry, and maybe they'd have gone to CD to duke it out. Now, neither goes.
I feel like we're in this crazy holding pattern til the fall. Anybody else getting that? The summer doldrums--our ladies could bring it Saturday and make those go away. Here's hoping they do.
