Zenyatta to face 4

[Scav]

This is the type of race that Zenyatta can lose. Some horse in a short field gets an easy lead and adios...

Several hundred people (OP employees, blue haireds, those on comp or disability, and the unemployed) showed up at the airport this morning to greet Z. Smooth Operator is having withdrawal symptoms now that his girlfriend has left SoCal.

Don't worry, the DT faithful hooked him up. Math got him a full-size pic and DrugS sent a sock, he'll be occupied up until race time.

Just Jenda, eh


Gf's name is Jenna.


Weird



Anyway, should be a nice long paid workout for that unbeaten dual Breeders' Cup champ.

I'm somewhat surprised she actually went to Arkansas. I figured they'd stick around SoCal once Rachel was out of the Apple Blossom.

I may be wrong, but they were "planning" on going to Arkansas once the annoucement was made to run her in 2010. I just wish Oaklawn wouldn't have jacked up the schedule so I could have seen her last weekend...

That's what I'd heard. She was going to Oaklawn with or without Rachel.

I loved the comparison of Zenyatta to the size and athleticism of LeBron James

I hate that comparision.

I think he might be there:

The fans were carrying handmade signs. "We Love Zenyatta," read one. "Hot Springs Welcomes Queen Z," read another. One lonely heart had a sign that said, "Marry Me Zenyatta." And, of course, there was the obligatory reference to the horse who is not here. It read, "Rachel Who?"

Yep.

Reminds me of last week's Fantasy Stakes.
