She won multiple Apple Blossems and her loss to Blame was massive, solidifying her greatness. She was a dirt horse.

Zenyatta would have run by anyone on any surface at any distance. Turf , mud synthetic, it wouldn't matter. But this is the Tepin thread. Let's talk about Tepin

Tepin was great. Respect her career and lost a ton of money trying to beat her.

She probably would have handled turf, i never said otherwise.... but labeling a multiple dirt G1 winner a turf horse is silly.
