This comes as no surprise

The only thing left is the late October announcement that Zenyatta will skip the BC because she "is tired after her rigorous March to October campaign."

Yeah, but Rachel sucks.

[The Indomitable DrugS]

And don't forget she also beat Gio Ponti, Awesome Gem, and two Euro's in the big one.

[Indian Charlie]

Yeah, but don't forget, Rachel lost 2 races within the last 20 months or so.

Z deserves HOY if she wins the Z stakes, since she could easily be the first horse ever to go undefeated in races named after themselves.

[The Indomitable DrugS]

Horse of the year? She deserves to be the #1 race horse of all-time. Forget Secretariat, Spectacular Bid, Citation and all of those other losers who lost races.

[Indian Charlie]

If she retires undefeated in races named after her, she really should skip the horse racing hall of fame and just be inducted into the baseball hall of fame.

And win the Nobel Prize for total awesomeness as well.

I heard she's going to do Dancing With The Stars next season.

I can't wait!

Isn't she already? What more does she need to prove. I don't recall ever reading that Secretariat danced before his races.

Stop that. You will make Smooth Operator jealous.

That depends on where Dancing With The Stars is filmed, and who the competition is.

If it's East of the Rockies, forget it.

If there are any real dancers in there, forget it.

And if she has to dance against males, no way, unless the males are all over the hill and hopeless.

The best part about her personality is how kind hearted she is. She just wants to win... but she never wants to embarrass other horses.

Doesn't matter if she's running against Gio Ponti or against Beulah Park maiden claiming fillies .. she'll just run to her competitions level and never win by any more than a carefully measured 2 or 3 lengths... sometime not even that far if she's feeling especially generous.

That kind of compassion shown for fellow horse is so refreshing.

[Indian Charlie]

Maybe they can get Trevor to be a judge on that lame dancing show and he can shoot his load off about how great she's dancing.

[The Indomitable DrugS]

Only a truly great one could have somehow made us all forget about Nashoba's Key.

Final prep at home in early Oct

Nice


Things really seem to be coming together nicely for that unbeaten dual BC champion mare…

[Indian Charlie]

Welcome to Derby Trail, I love you.

"I would say we're probably going to travel a bit," Moss said. "I'd like to see her run in some dirt races." "We'll run against anybody."

That was before RA lost.

That was also before Moss figured out that he was indeed full of shidt.

The better name for this thread would have been "The IC and IDS Jack Each Other Today Place"
