After 586 posts extolling Zenyatta and ridiculing RA, it would be nice to have a full list of posts making him eat his words.

QR lookin' good


Z is a runaway freight train in the lane.


Could be a multi-loss kinda season for that reigning Horse-of-the-Year




Wouldn't that be a shame.

i agree, but i was totally wrong about zenyatta. they are looking like they will show up for this race and rachel is balking. i really thought it would be the other way around but the way zenyatta finally beat the boys must of given these people alot of confidence.(last year they treated her with kid gloves with that schedule) thats what cost her horse of the year, they didn't travel and face different competition while rachel did. but you are right, QR is living up to what everyone thought he could be and that could spell the end of the "girls rule" era! at 4 years old this horse (QR) is no macho again or bullsbay thats for sure.

Even though they said they retired her, she's been working steadily (mind you very well) since the BC, where Rachael has been off since the Woodward. I don't think they are ducking her, but they aren't going to race her until they're sure she's ready.

LOL, its been months, if they wanted her to be ready she could be.
I beleive anyone who understands this game, knows Rachel is now the third gun.

i don't think its ducking, but why did they give her so much time before training again? regaurdless of what other horses do. i understand the horse needed a rest but after all these months and as hard as she did race last year. it will be interesting to see if shes even the same horse this year.
