The whole Zenyatta thing has gotten distorted for a number of reasons. One, nitwits on the internet ( and this is a big one ). They have annoyed many rational people so much that the sane folk become insane. Two, and this is related, the insistance ( often by the same nitwits ) that she was robbed of HOY despite the obvious has further frustrated sane people ( believe it or not, many sane people who believe Zenyatta is better than Rachel also believe the clear and correct choice was made last year ). Three, her tepid campaign this year, on the heels of last year, has further frustrated many. But this shouldn't mean people should fail to recognize her enormous talent, and further diminish her.

I 100% agree with this.
For me, Personal Ensign was the greatest female race horse ever, or tied with another one or two.. I wouldnt put RA or Z or Azeri or anyone in the past 20/25 years near her yet.. Go For Wand would be close though.
Booth Operator and CSC make me not even want to visit the state of California ever again.
