i thought sunday silence was better.
Yea, we all know those Cali horse suck, the next time one of them ships across the Miss. and wins it will be the first time.

so you think shes been beating good horses in her california races? that is what i meant. beating those horses again doesnt help her rep.

do you think personal ensign beat better horses in her career than zenyatta has?

Yes the nod goes to PE on horses to date, but its not this glowing margin that you make it sound like, there have been some quality horses in the past two breeders cups, and she beat a champion horse at Oaklawn.

Life is Sweet aint a crap horse either, she dusted her like a rented mule.

i dont think its even close. life is sweet is good on one surface, santa anita's pro ride. ginger punch? come on. she was a champion, but how would she have fared against the likes of winning colors or goodbye halo?

She beat one of the most over rated champions in history. Kinda like Favorite Trick winning HOY as a 2yo. She was that kind of champion. Not that its Zenyatta's fault that Ginger Punch was incredibly slow. Zenyatta would have beat GP in 100 out of 100 races.

I know I sound like a Z hater, I'm not, though I do hate the surface she runs on. Just prove her worth by at least running her against males out there. Its just boring.

Give me a break. Even if you like Ginger Punch, it's pretty clear she wasn't herself that day. Unless you think Brownie Points was better than she was, in which case, GP wasn't much of a champion.
