As long as we are all being so creative and using our imaginations, just image if Jackson actually ran Rachel on synthetic and Anabaa's Creation beat HER ????
The imaginary laugh of the year--along with the crap posted by the Rachelistas ... Carry on--dies laughing ...

Why would that be funny? Have you looked at Asmussen's record on synthetic tracks? I guess I'm a 'Zenyattaistas' because I got mocked on this forum for saying that she was better than Nashoba's Key? And I do believe I was the only one (at that time) who posted saying that she was better than Nashoba's Key.

Anabaa's Creation is cited as " junk " that Zenyatta barely beat, while the better horses she did beat don't get mentioned ... I never said it would be funny if she beat Rachel on synthetic--rather it would be ironic--as she is the gold standard for some that knock Z ... I have no idea what you mean about Asmussen's synthetic record--does HE run on it ??? Rachel's is perfect so far ... I realize this is a subtle analogy ...Perhaps it would be really funny and make more sense if I had said what if Anabaa's Creation beat Rachel on dirt---is that more obvious for your funny bone or mine ???? The second paragraph I can not respond to because it needs some kind of translation ...

There was a female horse in California named Nashoba's Key. She was an undefeated Multiple Grade 1 winner on synthetic tracks. She had a bunch of rabid fans. I posted that the far less established Zenyatta was better than her. I was mocked for it and I don't think anyone agreed with it. But hey, from that to 'Zenyatta hater' ?

A Rachelista does not translate into a Zenyatta hater ... I never use that word ... NEVER ... I got that you said Z was better than Nashoba's Key, but you being a " Zenyattaistas " made no sense ... You don't have to school me on Nashoba's Key--I know how good she was, and it was compliment of sorts ...

I was thrilled to read about the unretirement. Great news for racing. And I really liked reading "We are in the business to have fun" from Jerry Moss. At least one rich owner understands he's got a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity with a special horse, and doesn't choose to shut his horse down in its prime. That said, I'll still give 2-1 that there will never be a matchup between RA and Zenyatta. Too many things can go wrong. --Dunbar
