If you can't compete, fine, but if you want to say you have the best horse, then prove it.

While she obviously outclasses her field, I
hardly think Zenyatta will enjoy favorable circumstances
in her race. She's giving 9 lbs to a pretty
nice horse and I'll be surprised if the pace is
to her liking. And while it's debateable, there's
reason to believe she hasn't been training as
sharply as she was earlier in the year.

I expect Zenyatta to lose this weekend.
