When someone constantly has to tell you how great something is, it usually isn't that great at all. The disappointing thing is the trend of the top horses not running very much sucked, but the new trend of not running very much while do that rare running in soft races is even more troubling.
Frankel fashioned this crap(successfully)...I would hope he is resting in peace but unfortunately his daughter is making that difficult.

Unfortunately. And it wasn't as if he hadn't been successful doing it the other way either.

Gone are the days when horses ran in the Met Mile crushed and 5 days later cruised to victory in the Belmont Stakes now 5 weeks is a short turn.

Rachel needs to be running in G1 9f's races against the boys till BC. Zenyatta needs to go in the Gold Cup against Rail Trip if she isnt going to ship. It's time for people to get that its about competing not compiling.

If Zen isnt going to ship and they are only looking for the record, that was the hardest race she'll be in all year. If you think her prior races were creme puff, wait till you see the next 3.
