You are out of control...and completly laughable...

Find me one person who didn't spend a couple months at Bellevue who thinks Zenyatta could beat Secretariat.

Why don't you refraise that and say give me a horse, any horse that could beat Secretariat?

Dude, you just said that people are saying Zenyatta could beat Secretariat and Personal Ensign. Find me that person and then prove to me they are mentally competent. It's not that difficult.

Well they are before my time as well but they have these things called books...

And if you don't know the history of the game why do you feel so comfortable in placing Zenyatta among the greats of the game?

Come on, make a real arguement! None of that matters when talking about this subject. And who wants to read books when we have such things as message boards, Facebook Fan Groups, TVG and YouTube!

http://www.secretariat.com/past_performance.htm

Would you take the 17 in a row or the 16 for 21?

I always like the fact that Lucien Laurin couldn't see the finish of the Wood, and asked "who won the it?" Penery Chenery told him "You did" and walked away.

Prove Out did beat Riva Ridge in the Gold Cup in Riva's last race.

Ahem excuse me? Have you been following along this year? I must have missed it with statement's like this from the Rachel camp that she is 85% fit, "all options are open", figure 8's, and we are slowly getting her back to her fitness level of last year. My personal favorite was when they put a gag order on the Trainer, who knows maybe he has issues flying over the desert.
