On Sunday, the Zenyatta connections were talking about the possibility of her running in the Classic. They said it depends on who's coming and the size of the field. On Tuesday, with the announcement that Sea the Stars is retired so not coming, they say that it's all up to how she's doing and him not coming has no bearing on their decision. My question is if his participation wasn't what they were referring to when they said it would depend on who's coming, who is it they are concerned with?

I highly doubt the connections of Zenyatta ever even bothered to watch a single race of Sea the Stars, so I tend to believe them when they said Zenyatta going or not going didnt depend on Sea the Stars. As if Sea the Stars was ever going to come here and run in the BC. I didnt believe it for a second. Nor do I believe that Zenyatta's connections are even considering the Classic over the "easy race." Believe about 10% what you read on drf. The rest is just marketing.

I don't believe much of anything people say in public. But I'd be curious what horse they had in mind when they said it would depend on who's coming. If they weren't waiting to see what STS did, what other horse could have them on the fence?
