It is certainly not Hystericalady. That's why I want to see them run on the dirt, facing off on the cushion means nothing since we know Hystericalady sucks on it. I was responding to someone asking if Zenyatta was the best filly in the country, the "who knows who is best" was in reference to whether or not she's the best on the cushion, not a comparison to Hystericalady.

I didnt see the figures yet but to point out on the Zenyatta race is the pace was slowish and closing into a slowish pace rarely provides a fast final time, and not sure but being 10 back with 3 furlongs to go at oaklawn with a slowish pace, well there may have been a handful of winners like that all meet...and certainly none were chasing ginger punch. It appears the Zenyatta really is not dependent on the pace, she can go whenever asked. I would not be surprised to see here creep closer to the pace as she gains experience.

Hystarical Lady is one of the most mismanaged horses in a while, she has some real talent yet has not been put in the best spots to show it....thing zenyatta though may be really good, she embarrassed last years champ like it was a mdn special event.
