Well, I'm still upright

I admit I'm a Zenyatta fan, but I'm a fan of any horse that can impress and entertain me, and Zenyatta does both. It does her a disservice to try to pin the label of "one of the all time greats" on her. She's very good at what she does, she entertains the spectators and makes it exciting by closing like she does but she should have had a more challenging career if her handlers truly wanted to have her labeled "all time great". She's no Secretariat but it's not fair to say she's the California equivalent of Peppers Pride.

I'm looking forward to seeing her this weekend, she puts on a great show... But I'm also looking forward to seeing Richard's Kid
