yeah maybe, but whats the difference. rail trip looked good paying 3 bucks while beating the usual scrubs. sangaree, cigar man and that monster of monsters tres borrachos. whats the difference if she beats up on the vanity field or these under qualified grade 2 punks? everytime rail trip gets to a higher level he proves himself , which is not much.

What's the difference? I thought they were bringing Zenyatta back to try something a little different. I'd like to see her in the Stephen Foster, but if they insist on staying at home (for fear of flying over the Rockies), it would really weak to contest the Vanity for a third time. If they do that, their 2010 campaign will have been no different than what they did in 2008.

Say what you will about Rail Trip, but he is the defending champ in the Hollywood Gold Cup and 7-10 lifetime. Having tackled the boys in the BC Classic, don't you think Team Zenyatta should be doing something more than just beating up on fillies? I'm willing to give them the prep for the Apple Blossom against females and the Apple Blossom itself, but isn't enough, enough?
