Did anybody think Banshee Breeze would crush the then undefeated Manistique?

None of us know what would happen in a RA and Zenyatta race. Shirreff's record in NY is not encouraging though.

Nope.

It's such a fitting word for so many people.

Especially you.

Do you honestly think it's some sort of accident that I keep using it? Like gosh, I must suffer from such a lack of imagination that I cannot come up with other words, like loser, or Charlene?

Ya know, maybe I'll try to come up with something just for you after all. Maybe every fourth or so post I address to you, I'll resort to the tard thing, but for now, I'll leave you with the Prostate Operator one.

Oops, make that Prostate Operatard.

Nah, I don't drink anymore. But if I do you will know. I will start praising Team Zenyatta for their strong schedule.

Buying stocks and blindly holding them for a long period of time during a bull market doesn't take a rocket scientist. Buffet makes a fortune during bull mkt runs, and gets killed during bear market periods. I guess he is very smart during bull mkts and very dumb during bear mkts. But being a big Buffet fan you knew this already.

With statements like RA would crush Zenyatta I think you should reconsider going back to the sauce

Yeah, well, I'd love to see Z take on a decent horse that was in good form and race ready.

Not gonna see either happen, now are we?

You must've missed Z's last (record-setting) race where she had to spot nine pounds to a real nice mare.

At least Steve D. was impressed…

i figured he meant wins in a row, but she didn't set a wins in a row record. pepper's pride, much as bloodhorse, tvg and zenyatta fans wish to pretend otherwise, holds the modern-day wins record.
it's pretty bad when they have to come up with some convoluted 'wins in a row by a horse not running in restricted races...er, restricted to state bred races... record. oh, don't forget 'modern day'...passed cigar and citation-but somehowe mr frisky and hallowed dreams usually don't get mentioned! it's hilarious.

Lol … yeah, IC, Trinians ran like crap … probably should've skipped the G1 contest and run in half-a-dozen fake races (like RA) before taking on the big mare … LOL.

Mitch had her ready for a big effort in the V … which she clearly delivered.



By the way, Danzig, how many Breeders' Cup races did this Pepper horse win? LMAO

I think this spot for Rachel is total comedy and I have lost all respect for the connections, any respect that I had left is now gone.... Even if she ran in the Whitney and got smoked it would still say more then running in this spot, this is a joke and its pathetic. If not the Whitney why not go 10f at Toga, why not an easy prep and defend your Woodward title, again even if you get beat it still says your willing to run, I dont see how any Rachel fans can bash Zenyattas connections after the Rachel camp settles on this spot. I hope she gets crushed at Monmouth and then retires, so we dont have to talk about it anymore.

I've lost all respect for Jackson as well. I hope he can sleep at night.

Pretty sure this West guy backed RA for HotY … so it's beyond hilarious to see him now saying that it's all about the competition … and not the Roman numeral next to the race name.


Uh, West, who exactly were those killers that RA beat last year … Macho Again … Bullsbay? LMAO
