Yes, that's the sad thing. Just winning the race wasn't good enough for Blame........Zenyatta gets rewarded because she "courageously" overcame a bad pace scenario (nevermind that it's her flaw). Why Blame should be penalized for having more speed is beyond me. These voters were bound and determined to gift wrap a HOY for her because it would be looked at as a darn shame if she never got one. What an amazing example of a sympathy vote- they felt sorry for Zenyatta because she didn't end up undefeated.
