ETA - sorry, not the La Troienne, but that CD handicap or whatever it's called that Zenyatta scratched out of last year.

The Louisville BC/Distaff. The race Zenyatta ducked because Shirreffs didn't want to face One Caroline and a potential wet track.

Didn't DUCK the BC and didn't DUCK the AB.

But the point is certainly well made/taken.

Yes, if there's one thing Zenyatta will be remembered for, it's taking on all possible comers at every possible venue. I still haven't heard an excuse for that chickenshit move at Churchill.

Why do you even bother responding to him?

Oh no! A wet track! Surely no priceless champion super incredible awesome horse has ever navigated one of those!

i'm pretty sure that personal ensign, a priceless, undefeated champion mare ran on an off track. of course, that wasn't off a layoff....

I'm just saying, off a 6 month layoff, would you put her out? Do I think she would have lost; no... Do I blame them for not running her; no... none of their "goals" for her lived or died with scratching out of that race.
