At the end of the day, if Curlin and Big Brown don't run in the BCC, who is there to be afraid of?

With the race being more than 5 months away, it's a bit tough for me to give you others pointing towards it. It's much easier to throw out names of horses that won't be pointing towards it like you did. However, I don't see her beating Heatseeker. She's very nice, I'm not trying to take anything away from her. But, put her in the Californian yesterday. Does she beat Heatseeker? No way.

I don't think Lukas/Paulson saw Azeri beating Ghostzapper.

There aren't many years where it looks like a good time for a girl to tackle the boys at the Grade I level. But this looks like it could be one of those years to me. That's all I'm sayin'.

Look at the fractions of the two races side by side. She could have gone a little faster. Yeah, she can run with Heatseeker.

I'm just hoping the Euros send over some good turf horses to run in the classic to make this thing even remotely interesting.

I need to see Zenyatta in a fast pace race, I mean like a 115-120 type pace to see how she would do, on pure talent though she is scary, she runs by horses like they are tied to the hitching post, even when those horses are Ginger Punch and got nice soft cushy perfect trip leads.

Tiago could not beat Zenyatta with a head start, IMHO.

Tell me the difference in how the races were run and the times?? I'd say there is virtually zero difference. At this point in his career I'd say beating Surf Cat is not a major accomplishment. Beating Tiago is nice but that one is hardly a slayer type t-bred. Basically, Heatseeker beat the 2nd best horse in Shirrefs stable.

Again, zero difference basically in the two races if you eliminate the names of the horses.

Just a slight one.
