The imaginary laugh of the year--along with the crap posted by the Rachelistas ...

Carry on--dies laughing ...

Rachel Alexandra probably would lose to mediocre allowance horses like that on synthetic.

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 ...

What about it needs 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 ...
